If your remote script is accessible as simple webpage via http, you might try variant with http get request where response timeout set to minimal time for example via CURL:

if( $curl = curl_init() ) {
  curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://your_site/your_script.php');

  curl_exec($curl);      
  curl_close($curl);
}

but so you will have delay in 1 second in the your first script execution.
