If this is not performance critical, there is also a SHA1  
implementation in pure Lua:

FWIW, here is an HMAC-SHA1 implementation:

http://dev.alt.textdrive.com/browser/HTTP/HMAC.lua

Usage example:

local HMAC = require( 'HMAC' )

print( HMAC( 'Jefe', 'what do ya want for nothing?' ) )

This uses Klaus Ripke's excellent slncrypto library:
