Answer 1

This should work

$url = "http://api.iq.com/v1/update/";
$data = "api_key=API_KEY&api_sig=SIGNATURE&time_stamp=20090612111832&json=1";

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST ,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); /* obey redirects */
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);  /* No HTTP headers */
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);  /* return the data */

$result = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);
