getXmlHttpObject

Returns a cross-browser XmlHttpRequest object.

Example:

var newRequest = jpal.getXmlHttpObject();
newRequest.open('GET',someURL,false);
newRequest.send(null);
var data = newRequest.responseText;

This is of course a simplified example, that doesn't even use the asynchronous capabilities of the object necessary for the AJAX used by JPAL. See this article for details and links to resources.
