Apologies in advance if this is a case of me not RTFMing - but I'm looking for 
an XML-based API that would provide access to historical data for electoral 
results.  Basically, what I'm after is the source data that makes up the 
'Election Record' section of MP's pages on the BBC Democracy Live site, e.g:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/hi/representatives/profiles/27859.stm

Although the Beeb's done a nice job of marking up the HTML so it could be 
scraped, it would be *much* nicer if there was an API somewhere that could 
provide this.

Does anybody know of such a source?

Thanks,   Tim
