should I be looking at to get a bit of data from a website?  I'm currently
looking at HTTPAPI, although I don't need the results to go to an IFS
file. I've done a little with socket programming to a 3rd party software
engine, but I haven't done it to a webpage before.

Have you considered the 'SYSTOOLS.HTTPGETCLOB' function, to the content?
