Why not just do

`the thing that generates standard out here` | ssh -q 192.168.122.2 dd of=somethin

eg

find . | ssh -q 192.168.122.2 dd of=find.out

You don't need tar for anything.

alas the thing that generates the output creates 5 or 6 seperate streams in sequence that generate 5 or 6 log files but i dont know in advance the names of these logs.

You'll have to explain how the streams get sorted out locally before anyone can help you do it remotely. Maybe the program itself could piped each stream through a separate ssh instance. Or if you can wait for output to complete, collect all the files in an otherwise empty directory and rsync the whole thing to the remote.
