	// httpStream:
	// 		HTTP stream to parse 
	// topHeaders:
	//		Extra header information to add to each HTTP request (kind of HTTP inheritance)
	// partial:
	//		A true value indicates that the stream may not be finished, it may end arbitrarily in mid stream.
	//		The last XHR object will have a special property _lastIndex that indicates the how far along 
	// 		the httpStream could be successfully parsed into HTTP messages.
	// return:
	// 		Returns an array of XHR-like object for reading the headers for each message
	//
