A quick and dirty way:

$.getJSON('http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=milano&sensor=false',function(data) {
    var location = data.results[0].geometry.location;
    // coordinates are location.lat and location.lng
});

This gets the coordinates for the first result. It might not be the result you are looking for, but it's trivial to iterate through the results to find the right one.
