Mark, Since you said v6.3...
If you know C ... then you could write an ARF (Filter Plugin) that would do what you want it to do. (Take in puts formulate the XML and send it to a URL.) Still not exactly "all in out-of-the-box ARS" but close. I think you might even be able to find an ARF for implementing Perl scripts too. ( But that may or may not work well after you upgrade to version 7.) However in AR System v7 there is the option for a Java based plugin too. And the C ARF should keep working as well. You did however specifically ask for an interesting detail... "out the mid-tier"... I am fairly sure that their is not an AR Server side action that would send (push) anything to the mid-tier. Sure the AR Server returns results to the mid-tier when the client requested something from the AR Server. But that is more of a return code than an server push. So whatever you do will be coming from the AR Server and not the Mid-Tier. I guess if you wrote your own Web Service, and deployed it to the same web server that you have installed your Mid-Tier on. Then your filter could call your Web Service and have it then send out the data to the URL of your choice from your Mid-tier. However, other than that I am not sure how you could achieve your exact functional goal.
