I just wrote this nominatim call in Python:
https://github.com/pudo/dpkg-eu-fts/blob/master/geo.py#L17

The stuff around it is perhaps also interesting, it does Point-in-Polygon
matching (L44) to figure out if one of the geocoded addresses lies within
an EU statistical region so that we can then aggregate by those regions.
