It's usually a bad idea because Dropbox can throttle speed, stop sharing file when using from many locations.
You can install Dropbox to your server and sync some folder with your Dropbox:
https://www.dropbox.com/install
And to stream from your local folder is easier task.
But if you really need to get files from Dropbox real-time, you can use their API. They've got libraries for many languages. For example this one is for PHP, also tutorial there:
