in reply to Is there a way to get data from a queried web site without having to parse the resulting HTML?

Is there any way I can just have the data returned back to me sans HTML document?
Not really, no. Unless the server side processing has some means for you to specify that it only return raw data, then you can't really affect its output in that manner.
