Way back when, the WoW armory (web-based character, guild, etc lookup) used to use this. It was incredibly useful for third-party integration - who needs scraping when they serve you the data on a silver platter.

There was a Web-based 3D community/game system that used browser-based XSLT. An employee of mine worked with it a lot.

I think it was called "Where," or "There," or something.
