Could you perhaps at least mention the sort of script?  Are we talking 
PHP or perl ?  How are you accessing your data source? Directly in the 
DB or are you calling the api itself using CURL or the like?  If I were 
to make this in php, a few things I would definitely set are these:

ob_implicit_flush();
declare(ticks = 5); //

/* make it or break it */
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set("memory_limit","500M");

/* Keep it running */
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set("max_input_time", "0");
//set_time_limit(0);
ini_set('max_execution_time', 0);

The information is too scarce to be able to help effectively.
