I have no examples, but you actually will need to do a socket request to an NTP server. NTP (as you already) is the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1900.
Internal time in Unix uses elapsed seconds since Jan 1, 1970. VMS (old operating system) maintains a quadword (8 byte integer) with the number of seconds since 1900. Most OS's do not do this. I've tried a Google search on serial time and date - which what you want. I cannot find any quick answers.
