It looks like the data has been JSON encoded. You will need to use the JSON functions available in PHP to decode this, and retrieve the country code (assuming you've already managed to retrieve the information using cURL).

Here is a sample bit of code:

// $data contains the information shown at http://freegeoip.net/json/23.94.30.210.
$decoded = json_decode($data);
$country_code = $decoded['country_code'];

First, see related question Getting visitors country from their IP. You can use Geo IP Location.

Use function file_get_contents.

$jsonData = file_get_contents("http://freegeoip.net/json/23.94.30.210");
$countryInfo = json_decode($jsonData,true);

DEMO.
