Regardless of finding a library function, you could also make your own script to handle partial downloads.

For example, in PHP, you can use the fopen(), fread()... functions to open a stream on the server, seek the file to a particular position and transmit bytes to the requester. File offset and chunk length parameters would be set by the client using POST or GET methods.

Check this link. Maybe it helps you a little bit.

If, on the other hand, you don't have access to the server, and you just want to improve downloads from any Internet site, then you could look up for HTTP range header or here.
