OK - I wasn't using POST before - but now I am.
Here's the func:

private function delClip(myClipObj:Object){
    var loader:URLLoader;
    var url:String = "http://api.brightcove.com/services/post"
    var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
   
    var myVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
     myVars.command = "delete_video";
    myVars.video_id = myClipObj.id;
    myVars.cascade = 1;
    myVars.token = "myValidSecretToken";
    myRequest.data = myVars;
    myRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
   
    try {      &nbs p ;    
        navigateToURL(myRequest); // I also tried sendToUrl and using a Loader
    }
    catch (err:Error) {
        view.displayTxt("dumpTxt", err.message, null);
    }
}


Now I get the following error message:

{"error": {"name":"MissingJSONError","message":"Could not find JSON-RPC.","code":211}, "result": null, "id": null}
