I'm pretty sure it's not possible to send an HTTP request to a named 
pipe in Windows. It might be possible to read from a pipe like it's a 
file because curl can read from files and pipes can be specified that 
way. The problem is if the server closes the pipe then it would respond 
broken pipe? I've never tried it but curl file:///\.\Pipe\pipename
