I think the current trend is a rest api with json input/output, and an sdk in the popular languages that wraps the api.
Still I'm seeing fairly large services use things like XML-RPC to contact their servers.
Are these legacy services? I haven't come across anything recently that doesn't use the json api/sdk pattern I described.
