What language is used to create a program that will interface with a website to retrieve and update data, like the stock screening programs?

Just about any language. Usually you are just interfacing with the websites database.

Generally its like this:
C/C++: winsock/sockets
Windows(Win32) C/C++: Winsock
Windows(MFC) C++: various Winsock based controls
Visual Basic: Winsock control

Hope that helps.
