Is there a way to access the Bing Maps API via REST to obtain geocoding information from an address? This is something that's trivial to do with Google and Yahoo; what I'm looking for is functionality like this, from Yahoo:

<http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/rest/V1/geocode.html>

(Specifically, see the sample request URL on that page, but also imagine that URL with a simple "location" parameter rather than separate street, city, state, and zip parameters.)

I've found examples of using other parts of the Bing API via REST, but nothing that accesses the Maps API, or specifically, the geocoding functionality.
