If you want a thin compatibility layer then usocket is the right choice, but if you want the full socket API then you should take a look at iolib.

If you need a portable UDP networking support based on usocket, you may want to see usocket-udp. It's a patch depends on usocket after 0.4.0 release. The author has join to usocket team and been working on the "experimental-udp" branch which support UDP as well.
