Answer 1

Just in case you don't know, it requires 'net/http'

require 'net/http'

uri = URI.parse("http://example.org")

# Shortcut
#response = Net::HTTP.post_form(uri, {"user[name]" => "testusername", "user[email]" => "testemail@yahoo.com"})

# Full control
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)

request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri)
request.set_form_data({"user[name]" => "testusername", "user[email]" => "testemail@yahoo.com"})

response = http.request(request)
render :json => response.body

Hope it'll helps others.. :)
