Hi Ash, Everyone,
Thanks, that seemed to move me along further. I'm still unable to get the content part of the POST. I'm able to send the username and password through, but for some reason my controller gets empty content. Here is the request I've formed:

##### with mech object
my $t1 = Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst->new;
$t1->add_header( 'Content-type' => 'text/x-json' );

$req = new HTTP::Request ("POST", "http://localhost/rest/something";,
                                                ['X-Username' => 'xxxxx', 
'X-Password' => 'xxxxx'],
                                                to_json({ stuff })
                                                );
$res = $t1->request( $req );
### fails with my Bad Request
#### end


In the above request, username and password are processed successfully, but no content is received. I look for the content in $c->req->data.

Here is the analogous LWP request:

##### LWP object
$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$req = new HTTP::Request ("POST", "http://localhost:3000/rest/something ",
                                                ['X-Username' => 'xxxxx', 
'X-Password' => 'xxxxx'],
                                                to_json({ stuff })
                                                );
$req->content_type('text/x-json');
$res = $ua->request($req);
### successfully creates the object
#### end


Why not just change $ua->request there to $t1->request in your last snippet (i.e. set content_type on the request object, not on the mech object. It probably ignores it when you pass a Request object)
