There is an XML-RPC implementation for talking to the node in 0.3,
however for one reason or another people didn't use it much, and it
hasn't been ported to 0.4 yet.  Either way, FCP is the standard way for
a client to talk to the node, so please stick to that.

I posted an email recently describing several commands that should be
added to FCP, it's subject was "New FCP Functionality" and it was posted
at 14:23 Oct 7th, check the archive.  Implementing these would be
ambitious, but not impossible.
