Twisted agrees. A server that speaks real HTTP and real XML-RPC over stdin and stdout (untested ;): from twisted.web import xmlrpc, server from twisted.internet import stdio, reactor class YourApplication(xmlrpc.XMLRPC): def remote_somefunction(self, args): ... return result stdio.StandardIO(server.Site(YourApplication())) reactor.run() For more details, see <http://twistedmatrix.com/>.
