It's probably 10x easier in C# but it can be done.

libcurl is a popular library for fetching web pages.

Alternatively, just use the wget programme as part of a script to fetch the data, and then your C++ programme to operate on it.

That is much, much harder. Find a webpage where the values are plain text in the html source.
