OK, I should probably clarify: the program does not provide direct web
access to Unihan in any way, nor even contain it. It rather expects the user
to have downloaded Unihan.zip, and direct the program to the location of
that file, which it would then process. This shouldn't be more of a problem
than having a local copy of Unihan.zip, to the best of my understanding.
(It might also be possible to direct it to read Unihan.zip directly from the
Unicode site, but I'd be sure to ask permission before trying that out).
