Well there is ruby-libcurl, ruby bindings to libcurl  
[http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-libcurl/](http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-libcurl/)  
fairly old, so not sure the mileage there.

Ruby has open-uri  
[http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/open-uri/rdoc/](http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/open-uri/rdoc/)  
which should get you close.

Hope this helps.
