I think you should use External Interface because you have loaded SWF and it in Running mode by using External InterFace you can call Flex Method to pass value ck Accessing JavaScript functions from Flex

Hope that helps

The simplest way I am aware of is to use normal GET requests over your flash application.

something like

"yourflashobject.swf?name=john&surname=doe"

you can request the createJPG.php from your flash app and then check the size of the request.

Not sure if you can see returned status ( like 200 OK, Error 404 etc ) from flash. Somebody please confirm.
