To make network calls from IronPython, you can use either System.Net.WebClient 
or System.Net.HttpWebRequest. Here's WebClient's basic usage:
 
from System import Uri
from System.Net import WebClient

def process_response(sender, event_args):
    print event_args.result

request = WebClient()
request.DownloadStringCompleted(process_response)
request.DownloadStringAsync(Uri("http://foo.com";))

WebClient also has an OpenReadAsync method which works the same way, but let's 
you get a Stream instead of a String. There is also HttpWebRequest, which is 
more powerful (doing post requests and such), but a bit more verbose. Doing 
some searching on the web will definitely yield a ton of C#/VB examples on how 
to do this, which should be straight-forward to convert to Python.
