I have no experience with these technologies, and others can point you
to more detailed info, but you could try using XML-RPC (see the docs
for the xmlrpclib module in the standard library) or SOAP (Google it).

These would be better than rolling your own.

Perhaps there's a more Pythonic solution though?
