We do have a simple way to call RPC services via an HTTP GET, which works like this:

http://host:8080/axis/services/MyService?method=getTemp&zip=02474

i.e. use the method param to control method name, and add other params as appropriate; 
this only works for simple types.  You'll get back the SOAP response.

What we don't yet have is a way to generate an HTML form which allows the user to fill 
in argument values and make the call via a UI.  If someone had the time to write such 
a beast, we'd happily commit it to our source tree! :)

Thanks,
--Glen
