Also error we get is connection time out
due to the large security risk - x10hosting's free-hosting accounts do not have remote MySQL database access (both incoming and outgoing from the account) - x10hosting's firewall blocks all remote database access

one of the big risks is - individual user activity can get entire servers (e.g. IP = 198.91.81.2) and domains (e.g. x10host.com) blacklisted
which would effect hundreds of accounts

You control (effectively) both accounts, so there's no reason you can't write an HTTP API at one end (or both) to allow connectivity. Getting external resources over port 80 shouldn't be a problem unless the data are huge, in which case chunking or synopsizing at the host end preparaive to an API call could be an answer.
