API request in rhino python

urllib was not enough to make the request I wanted, but urllib2 helped out:

def requestAPIData(url, jsonRequestData):
    request = urllib2.Request(url)
    request.add_data(json.dumps(jsonRequestData))
    request.add_header("Content-type", "application/json")
    request.add_header("Accept", "application/json")

    r = urllib2.urlopen(request)
    geometryJson = json.load(r)
    return geometryJson

thanks for the help!
