I know nothing about the web version of MMBASIC a wifi pico only turned up a couple of days ago :-)
There are several methods, the simple method is to open up some form of TCP port on both computers, and one listens on the port the other sends. Think of it as a wireless serial connection. You just treat it as such. You may already use something like this if you telnet or ssh into something
The thing I wanted to point out is the range. The antennas on the picos are tiny, and if the signal is poor you will have a lot of trouble. So it might be worth having a walk around with a wifi signal detector on a smartphone and see what you get.
If the signal is strong then no problem.
However if it's not good then maybe another option needs to be employed. Try a 430Mhz Tx/Rx module pair. They are simple serial devices, and have a much better range. Another advantage is that you don't have to use a wifi pico at the remote end :-)
