You can use the HttpListener (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/system.net.httplistener) directly since you really aren’t trying to run any sort of web server. If you need a nice REST HTTP application server, ServiceStack is very nice, but I think you just want a low level integration layer, and it’s overkill for that. It sounds like you are stuffing a message in HTTP because it’s a common protocol. I recommend considering ZeroMQ instead of HTTP for this sort of integration, particularly since you are already encapsulating your data in a message.
