You may try following method.
Schedule a cron job in your local machine which will check whether file is copied already for the day. If not, it has to connect to the remote machine and try to copy it.
Here the problem is even after copying file to local machine, cron job will run. You may alter the cronjob set up inside your script to fire only on the next day on successful copy.

bup-web
bup-ftp(1) General Commands Manual bup-ftp(1)
NAME
bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory
SYNOPSIS
bup web [[hostname]:port]
DESCRIPTION
bup web starts a web server that can browse bup repositories. The file hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and
bup-ftp(1).
hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence bup web will only offer up the web server to locally running
clients. If you'd like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dangerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all avail-
able interfaces: :8080.
EXAMPLE
$ bup web
Serving HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8080...
^C
$ bup web :8080
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0:8080...
^C
