networking help/advice needed

I would like to start using Euphoria for networking applications. I'm TOTALLY clueless about how to go about this, but I've found a cross-platform package in the archive called "eunet" which seems to be what I'm looking for. At the moment I'm only interested in executing HTTP requests (I would like to create an application which downloads random numbers. See http://www.random.org/clients/http/ ).
Keep in mind that I'm using version 3.1.1 of Euphoria and would prefer not to use 4.0 until it's stable, but I'm aware it includes a socket library - could I use some of this code in 3.1.1?
I'm finding it hard to get my head around networking concepts, I understand the basics of HTTP requests but when it comes to actually writing the code I don't know where to begin. Any advice appreciated, thanks in advance!
