One solution is to use the shared property HttpContext.Current to get
back to the 'context' of the request, i.e. party on
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables. Just import the correct
namespace (System.Web) and also reference the System.Web assembly if
you are in another project.

The drawback is you won't be able to use the code outside of a web
application. Perhaps this is not a drawback for your design, but just
a thought for consideration.
