I don't think you need to write it from scratch, Hermes project http://hermes-pubsub.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ does this (and more). You could probably use only consumers module to change pull to push and push messages from Kafka to other REST services. It has all the retry and send rate auto adjusting magic you will probably need at some point.
