If you perform an HTTP GET on a calendar collection, the server will return a monolithic icalendar containing all the events. So a combination of crontab + curl on the external machine should do the trick. Something like:
curl -u user:password -o calendar.ics http://calendarserver.example.com:8008/calendars/users/username/17E1DFCF-66B...
Hmm. I'm not certain what UID to feed that URL with, but all obvious choices return:
<html><head><title>Unauthorized</title></head><body><h1>Unauthorized</h1><p>You are not authorized to access this resource.</p></body></html>

Your best bet is to use a web browser first to determine the correct URL for the calendar you are interested in:
If you're using SSL start with: https://hostname:8443/calendars/users/username/
Otherwise: http://hostname:8008/calendars/users/username/
Of course replace hostname and username with your own. Log in when you are presented with the username/password dialog. This will present you with a list of calendars, including some "internal" collections like "inbox". Look in the list for the ones with MIME Type = (collection, calendar) . If you're using the default calendar, it will be called "calendar", and therefore your URL should be /calendars/users/username/calendar/ , otherwise it will have a guid for its name. To find which guid-named calendar is the one you want, click on each one and look for "displayname" within the page. Once you find the right calendar, that's the guid you want to use for the URL.
I have two calendars. One is the default 'calendar', the other has a GUID name. I want the default. So I'm trying:
http://hostname:8008/calendars/users/username/calendar/
and still getting:
<html><head><title>Unauthorized</title></head><body><h1>Unauthorized</h1><p>You are not authorized to access this resource.</p></body></html>
When I use a browser, I do see a Collection Listing page with a bunch of .ics files listed (after logging in).
This is on Lion Server in case that makes a difference.

Ah, assuming you are passing the right username and password to curl, try using --digest in your curl command line because basic auth is off by default for Lion calendar server.
