You can do this via HttpWebRequest. Just set the HttpWebRequest.Method to "POST".

For details, see the example on the MSDN page for HttpWebRequest.Method. The call to GetReponse will return a WebReponse which includes a Stream. You can then read the string information from the Stream using a StreamReader.
