Here is a quick and dirty patch that might work for you. You can use it
as follows:

req = http.get(host, port, path)
if not req and req.partial then
  stdnse.debug1("Partial response is %d bytes long", #req.partial)
end

There are some issues that would need to be taken care of first, before
this patch could be included in the trunk.

Cheers,
