Using a 3rd party web service API in a joomla / php application

I am creating a custom application using the joomla platform. I have some 3rd party web service APIs that I need to use in my application.

I'm not really sure how I will send and get the information from the API. Is it possible to do the same thing a browser does i.e. send get/post requests to the API, and have a response returned?

Found the JHttpTransportCurl class in the joomla API. Looks like that will work.

Please take at look at the the curl extension. This allows you to make calls like a browser.
