I also don't know why the backend-folder isn't in the zip files that you 
can download from qooxdoo-site. Anyway you will have to check-out 
current qooxdoo version from SVN. How? Just read "Obtaining from 
repository" here: 
http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/user_manual/requirements. Than you will 
have both: backend and frontend directory and all demo-test and 
demo-examples.
I don't think XML is the best way to transport you data form server to 
client. And there is no examples how to do this(probably you will wright 
one?). Anyway in short: you send xml-string, parse it on the frontend 
side and extract your data. But IMHO the easier way to do this is to 
send array of objects(no need to parse). Your backend just send smth. 
like this:
[ {'name':'John',  '2name':'Comerfold', 'status':'newbie'},  
{'name':'Sebastian', '2name':'Werner', 'status':'qooxdoo-guru'}....]
- simple to iterate through and to work with.
