Still you can try the utility I mentioned (http://www.darronschall.com/weblog/2006/10/convert-generic-objects-into-class-instances.cfm) or fix the service on the backend to answer with proper data.

Our problem is that the http service isn't returning e4x or xml (even though the returnResult is set to that) if the data levels are 4 or more. It's coming back as untyped Objects. Normally we would call the HTTP Service asking for e4x, get the data back in the response and pass the XML through a parser so it returns a type Object.
