Question Syncing between admins using the same add-on

Hi Guys and Gals,
PHP programer/gaming nerd turned add-on programmer here. I am very new to the add-on scene so please do not get offended/nasty if I ask something that is not possible/the normal way(the proverbial wheel)/Recommended...

My question is this: How does one go about syncing data (saved variables) between two people using the same add-on. Is it already done, or is it not possible? I have an idea for an add-on that is great for a one man wolfpack but was wondering if a sync is possible (besides emailing/dropboxing the file) between two admins, say a guild master and a(n) officer(s)? I know lua can do an ftp connection which is as pretty straight forward as any other programming language but wasn't sure and cannot find anything about it on the forum. If I missed a post on the subject please show me as I can be blind from time to time . Also another thought might be an in game mail catcher that could send an update/receive an update automatically.

Thanks in advance.
