WM_COPYDATA sends data to Winamp. If you want to retrieve data, use WM_USER. You are allowed to do it only from inside Winamp process (from some plugin).
If you want to do it from another application, write a general plugin that retrieves it via WM_USER and make your program communicate with your plugin instead.
