You wouldn't use the webRequest Api for that.

Nevertheless you are going to run into another problem: Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)

If you want your extension to be able to make requests to example.org you will need to ask for permission on that host. The permission request is being made in your manifest.json as described here.

When you have granted your extension permission to the host, you can simply fetch data via ajax.
