DESCRIPTION
     The split utility reads the given file (or standard input if no file is
     specified) and breaks it up into files of 1000 lines each.

Just look at the manpage... it can work with options like -b 666000k
And it can read from stdin. But it can't write to stdout AFAIK. But this could
be done with some lines in C to fit your needs.
