Create HTTP post request and receive response using C# console application

Insted of using System.Net.WebClient I would recommend to have a look on System.Net.Http.HttpClient which was introduced with net 4.5 and makes your life much easier.

Also microsoft recommends to use the HttpClient on this article

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webclient(VS.90).aspx

An example could look like this:

var client = new HttpClient();
var content = new MultipartFormDataContent
{
     { new StringContent("myUserId"), "userid"},
     { new StringContent("myFileName"), "filename"},
     { new StringContent("myPassword"), "password"},
     { new StringContent("myType"), "type"}
};

var responseMessage = await client.PostAsync("some url", content);        
var stream = await responseMessage.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
