footnote: depends on the interface, of course. here's a
complete XML-RPC request in Python:
import xmlrpclib
betty = xmlrpclib.Server("http://betty.userland.com")
print betty.examples.getStateName(41)
to make a SOAP request, just replace "xmlrpc" with "soap".
(I'm pretty sure it can be made as easy in any modern language
with decent reflection support)
doing the same thing via HTTP requires far more work,
even in Python...
