I'd be more worried about how you make sure you're not calling out to something that will expose your private data. I'd want some form of data tainting a la Perl that prevents AccountNumber from going over the wire, for instance. And how do I know that the results are correct from a call, do we need to send this over HTTPS so that we can validate the certificate chain? The nits that need picking could make or break this kind of approach.
