Invoking a remote webservice using JSON

I need to have an RPG program invoke a remote web service and that web service uses JSON for its request and response. This requires a post request, and I need to set the Accept: application/json and Content-Type: application/json header attributesin the header, then send the json in the body. I have used YAJL to construct the JSON correctly. My problem is that all examples I can find show how to “BE” the web service, not how to “CONSUME” a web service with JSON. I have previously invoke remote RESTful web services that use XML via Scot Klement’s LIBHTTP utilites. The JSON piece and header/body have me spinning in circles. Does anybody have an samples they know of that show how to consume a web service that uses JSON for the request and response?
