It looks like Gecko implements an "onprogress" event handler for this purpose, using an event object of type LSProgressEvent (http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-DOM-Level-3-LS-20020725/load-save.html#LS-LSProgressEvent) That event listener is called each time new data arrives. Maybe that's an alternative to consider?
