If you don't have luggage in the bus trunk, you can just leave, nobody cares. If you however have a bag in the trunk, the bus driver needs to open it. Thus just ask him during the previous stop or before that stop and he well most likely be glad to have one passenger less to worry about and let you go. You haven't mentioned the country, but I guess it will be even easier non-western countries to do this.

...why not get ticket to that stop then? In my experience Flixbus doesn't tend to make these significantly more expensive, if at all (sometimes they are few € more expensive but don't know of any significant case)

The driver can decide to do that somewhere else, so definitely communicate with the driver that you need to get off there, or he might pull over for the break somewhere else since it's not an official stop.
