How to do PUT and DELETE with Zend_Http_Client

The Zend_Http_Client docs are confusing and hard to understand. Currently I am using the following code to GET information from the Challonge API:

$client = new Zend_Http_Client("https://api.challonge.com/v1/tournaments/$bracket.json");
$client->setParameterGet(array(
    'api_key' => $apikey,
    'include_participants' => 1,
));
$feed = $client->request()->getBody();

Very simple, three lines. Now this is a GET. How would I do the same exact thing as a PUT? Passing parameters and everything. What about a DELETE?

Sorry, I know this is not directly related to the question Json Axelrod asked, but I had a similar problem and could not find the solution anywhere online.

I was trying to do a PUT / DELETE request with Magentos Varien_Http_Client

class Varien_Http_Client extends Zend_Http_Client

So I thought the same would apply that was written in this topic and here. However no matter what I tried I could not get PUT nor DELETE requests to work.

Really simple solution in that case: Use Zend_Http_Client instead of Varien_Http_Client. It seems that Magentos Http Client class is adding some extra "convenient" methods for preparing the body that won't allow PUT nor DELETE requests.

You would do 

$client->request('POST')

or 

$client->request('DELETE')
