The URL itself is a query string. Something similar could be achieved by checking $_GET for variable names.
if (!empty($_GET)) {
// do stuff with item here
} else if (!empty($_GET)) {
// do stuff with spell here
} // ... etc ...

That's enough info to make your own
private server
honest and perfectly legal database :)
There are also some tools that can convert wdb and dbc files to the csv format, which makes it even easier.
