Try this, replace ... with real values for siteid / siteAuthenticationKey / softwaretype:

Code:

escape = require('socket.url').escape

function encode(t)
  local res = {}

  for k, v in pairs(t) do
    res[ #res + 1 ] = tostring(k) .. '=' .. tostring(v)
  end

  return table.concat(res, '&')
end

qs = encode({
  dateutc = os.date('!%Y-%m-%d+%H%%3A%M%%3A%S'),
  siteid = escape('...'),
  siteAuthenticationKey = escape('...'),
  softwaretype = escape('...'),
  tempc = grp.getvalue('32/1/5'),
  dailyrainin = grp.getvalue('32/1/31'),
  winddir = grp.getvalue('32/1/3'),
  rainin = grp.getvalue('32/1/30'),
  windspeedmph = grp.getvalue('32/1/1'),
  humidity = grp.getvalue('32/1/11'),
  windgustmph = grp.getvalue('32/1/2'),
  baromin = grp.getvalue('32/1/15'),
})

url = 'https://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/automaticreading?' .. qs
log(url)

res, err = require('socket.http').request(url)
log(res, err)
