Wim,

You could either read the headers in an HTTP response or, better, run 
timekeeping software like NTP on the client PC.

Other alternatives are time and daytime protocols, where you just open the 
connection to get a response (IIRC).  You could also just get a single NTP 
packet, and parse it - the packet fields are defined here:
