urllib2.Request can do it:

     import urllib2

     headers = {'Content-Type':'text/plain'}
     request = urllib2.Request(url, post_data, headers)
     response = urllib2.urlopen(request)

Because there's data, 'POST' is implied, but you have to set the
Content-Type explicitly, or it will assume the content is
application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
