I didn't read through all of your code but here is the method I have
been using with success.
var op:Operation = service.getOperation("GetDataByGrouping") as Operation;
op.resultFormat = "e4x";
// temp object to store arguments
var args:Object = new Object();
args.groupingRequests = new Object();
args.groupingRequests.GroupName = "RPRToolStaticData";
op.arguments = args;
service.GetDataByGrouping();
