Python - Retrieving data from web server

Question

I am making a program where I need to get information from a web server (I'm using Django) and then I'd send data back to the server.

The thing is I can only find ways to get information from the html page of the url I requested.

How could I use a Python script to get data from the web server? (like making a Django db query but outside Django, using only Python) I want to be able to get the information stored in Django without having to go directly to the website (that is, using a Python script).

Thanks in advance,
