Hi, The short answer to your question is no, nothing like that exists at the moment. If you have your web server (or process that wil use gauge-data.txt) on your weeWX machine then it is a simple matter for the generated file to be saved wherever you want, but if you need to transfer the file in near realtime to another machine then no that capability does not exist at the moment.
There is no technical reason why a loop based ftp or rsync service could not be written, I know that some have been tinkering with it. There are no weeWX issues raised on GitHub in this regard nor is there anything in the weeWX roadmap so I don't expect you will see such a service in the immediate future (3.7.0 has been soaking up most people's effort). I think it is fair to say there is some recogniton that some sort of loop based transfer mechanism is needed to support near realtime the likes of SteelSeries Gauges, Saratoga and Leuven templates and others but at the moment no effort has been put into creating a supported solution. I expect Tom and Matthew may have well have further views on this.
