All requests coming to the server from HTTPClient are GET requests, no matter what I set it to.

Here is the code:

var request = Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient(),
request.open("POST", "http://test.com");
request.onload = function() {
    try {
        var content = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
        if(content.error == undefined) {
            // do some things
        } else {
            alert(content.error);
        }
    } catch (err) {
        Titanium.API.error(err);
        Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog({
            message : err,
            title : "Remote Server Error"
        });
    }
};
request.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
request.send({ test: 'test'});

I've also tried not setting the header and also passing in the data as a string instead of an object. No matter what the server says it is a GET request. Any help would be great. Thanks.
