No, middleware is not the right place. Use a view.
I would use GET (not POST) since you don't modify anything and
testing is easier:
def url_head(request):
c=urllib.urlopen(request.GET['url'])
content=c.read()

Maybe that's a firewall problem. Can you access the page with e.g. wget
from the shell? Is there a proxy? Maybe you need to set the http_proxy
environment variable.
You can try the view by uncommenting urlopen() and c.read() and setting
content to a string.
