OK, so when you say "web2py client", you don't mean a browser but a server-side web2py application that happens to be communicating with another server-side web2py application (on a different server). In that case, I suppose the obvious approach is to use Python to make HTTP requests from your client to the www.example.com domain. To do that, there is nothing web2py specific -- you can use the "requests" library (or urllib2 directly). Depending on the nature of the data and what needs to happen with it, you might find this helpful: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/10/services#Restful-Web-Services. You could also use remote procedure calls <http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/10/services#Remote-procedure-calls> .
Regarding the server receiving multiple requests at the same time, that shouldn't be a problem, as web2py (and whatever web server you are using) are designed to handle concurrent requests.
