The same way you would write a client with netty.

Netty client example: http://static.netty.io/3.6/guide/#start.9

You'd need to use the ClientBootstrap to set up a new bootstrap, create a pipeline factory, handlers, etc, etc.

In all honestly, that's probably a bit overkill unless you really need it to be async, which is sounds like you don't. If it's just a REST service or something similar you need to access, I'd just use a plaid old HttpUrlConnection and get what you need synchronously.
