I want to run torture tests against an https server on domain A; I have 
configured apache on the server to respond to a specific hostname ipaddress.

I don't want to torture the live server so I have set up an alternate instance 
on a different ip address.

Is there a way to get urlib or urllib2 to use my host name and a specifed ip 
address?

I can always change my hosts file, but that is inconvenient and potentially 
dangerous.
