URL call from SHELL script

My system does not have wget, curl and lynx. The chances are low that the SA would install them for me. Do I have any other way out? I need to invoke a few URL calls from my SHELL script.

Thought of using a PERL script or writing a simple Java client, but that adds in more dependencies.

Any idea?
