If you haven't discovered www.python.org yet I suggest going there :P. You will find there the documentation you need under the conspicuous name library reference. Specifically the modules you'd probably most be interested in are urllib/urllib2/httplib depending on what you need. Their may be other external modules which fit your task even better, try doing a search through the Python Package Index..
