I believe that the 'XXX' is the only parameter to the call. The username and password
that are supplied on the command line are for HTTP authentication, I think. I am not
sure how SOAP::Lite does HTTP authentication. In a quick look at the SOAP::Lite docs,
I did not find anything.
Further, it may be that the getQuote method must be prefixed by the namespace used for
the URI. The SOAP::Lite docs seem to show an example of this
print SOAP::Lite
-> new(....)
-> call('myprefix:method' => @parameters)
-> result;
Whether "myprefix" is supposed to the the actual namespace or some prefix you make up,
I do not know. I would guess that the prefix must be the namespace itself.
