If you have a direct link to a file, you can download from it directly using a normal HTTPS request. For instance, using curl, saving the data to a local file, that would look like:

curl URL_HERE -o local_file

Exactly how you do that will depend on what HTTPS client you're using, which isn't specific to the Dropbox API, so I can't offer insight on that.
