I'm using Python.

This should be the simplest way:

Code:

# requires bitcoinrpc 6K library by jgarzik
# get it from https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc/archive/master.zip

from bitcoinrpc.authproxy import AuthServiceProxy
prx = AuthServiceProxy('http://rpcuser:rpcpassword@127.0.0.1:8332')
print prx.getnewaddress()
