Apart from that, isn't it also more lightweight than for example SOAP?
As someone who is currently developing a specification for a SOAP based service: Much more lightweight, both at runtime and at development time. OTOH, SOAP nowadays offers you very nice tool support. An extreme example: A tool sold by my employer allows you to create a fully blown Ajax-GUI by simply using web services and without a single line of Java or JavaScript code. For example, all buttons are mapped to web service calls, which you do select from a list. Personally, I do prefer XML-RPC, in particular for the initial steps. However, for a publicly available application with more than, say, 10 operations, I would nowadays recommend SOAP.
