If you are talking about sending an HTML request with the post method you can just connect to the web server on port 80 with telnet or netcat (nc will echo) and simply time POST HTTP/1.0 <enter + enter>
although, thats actually a bad post request without a URL but might give you some info on the server depending on its configuration.
