Field value in clean_ method is available as self.cleaned_data['field_name']:

class MyModelForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:    
        model = MyModel
        fields = ('title', )

    def clean_title(self):
        title = self.cleaned_data['title']
        try:
            name = client.search(title).name
        except HTTPError:
            raise ValidationError("Can't validate the name. Try again later")
        if title != name:
            raise ValidationError("This name is not supported")
        return title
