Can be done in lua (with luasocket and bitop), but would be lots of
work. I would suggest binding to some existing C/C++ library.

Check out also:
http://lua-gtk.luaforge.net/en/index.html
http://oproj.tuxfamily.org/wiki/doku.php?id=lgob

Those are gtk bindings (so you would need to install gtk on windows),
but you have WebKit and GStreamer available.

You can also use SDL-based platforms:
http://scrupp.sourceforge.net/
http://love2d.org/

Then you have cross-platform binaries (even for MacOS), but no WebKit
nor GUI widgets.

And there is also qt bindings with all its goodies:
