clj-apache-http is pretty useful. With it you can do the following:

user=> (require ['com.twinql.clojure.http :as 'http])
nil
user=> (def q (http/encode-query {"q" "clojure url"}))
#'user/q
user=> (def url (str "http://stackoverflow.com/search?" q))
#'user/url
user=> url
"http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=clojure+url"
