However I'm hitting a wall when it comes to web services that return
anything but a String when using the Mozilla SOAP api.

Does anybody have any experience with the Mozilla SOAP api?

I'm afraid not...just with JSON. The Chemical Blogspace with Quotes
user script communicates with CB using JSON, where a javascript object
is returned as a string. This is then evaluated ('eval') to yield the
Javascript object, a dictionary in this case.

The good thing about this is that it's easy to do and lightweight. The
bad thing is that it is not well known outside of Javascript, although
according to http://www.json.org/, parsers are available for every
language under the sun.

If you could give an example of a SOAP webserver with nice
documentation, I could have a go if this would help.
