http://php.net/filesize

You may need to put something like this on the remote server:
<?php
  $filename = $_REQUEST['filename'];
  $filesize = filesize("/full/path/to/stuff/they/should/see/$filename");
  echo $filesize;
?>

Or maybe not, as PHP may be smart enough to handle something like this
on your local server:
The PHP homepage is currently this large:<br />
<?php echo filesize('http://php.net/');?>

I have no idea what you mean by "size on disk" number.

Bytes is bytes.

However big the file is, that's how big it is.

Well, maybe, under Windows, there is some other meaningless weird
number you can get... [shrug]
