How to make REST type call from Roku?

I found in the documentation ways to make calls to the Roku box via a REST API, but I am wanting to dynamically build some objects based on a config call to a third party server which will return back a JSON object which then I want to use to populate my local object on the Roku. I am having difficulty finding documentation showing how to do something like this. Anyone have any light or direction you can shed on the subject?

Thanks!

Kills me…been looking for info in the API doc and forums for hours, not having much luck…venture out to Google and viola’ I find something. If anyone still has any pertinent info you feel would be of help, please still post, but I just found this which I just wanted to post here in case anyone else needs some info in the future.
