I want to call this function:

No, you don't :-)

Boolean SCNetworkCheckReachabilityByAddress (
     const struct sockaddr *address,
     int addrlen,
     SCNetworkConnectionFlags *flags );

A struct sockaddr is:

struct sockaddr {
	u_char sa_len;		/* total length */
	u_char sa_family;		/* address family */
	char sa_data[14];		/* actually longer; address value */
};

I don't know how the struct should be filled in in order to call the
above function. Can anyone point me to some example code that fills that
struct in for a normal web address e.g. amazon.com?

You actually want to call SCNetworkCheckReachabilityByName.
