URL in bibliographic references

> reference file (.bib file) the reference to a web page ?

I do it like so (note the “howpublished” field):

@Misc{uscensusbureau:02,
  Optkey =       {},
  author =       {{United States Census Bureau}},
  title =        {Reported Voting and Registration, by Sex and Single Years
of Age: November 2000},
  howpublished =
{http://www.census.gov/population/socdemo/voting/p20-542/tab01.txt},
  month =        {November},
  year =         {2002},
  OPTnote =      {},
  OPTannote =    {}

}%

To get this (APA style):

United States Census Bureau. (2002, November). Reported voting and registration, by sex and single years of age: November 2000. http://www.census.gov/population/socdemo/voting/p20-542/tab01.txt.
