Jason, I haven't done this yet (it is on my list though), but you can use Active4D as you describe, and you don't have to use XML. You are just handling a request and sending back information. The only difference is that with AJAX you are sending back part of a page (or data that would be transformed to render part of a page) and with traditional A4D code a complete HTML page would normally be returned.
A similar question was asked in the past week and I believe Aparajita mentioned he'd publish some AJAX notes soon. There are also a number of simple PHP AJAX examples on the web that you could adapt to Active4D.
