Sure. http://www.xmlteam.com

We offer stuff ranging from simple on-demand calls to our web service (you purchase credits, docs cost you X credits per access) to a Perl-based app that captures an XML feed and parses and inserts the data into a DB for you to use as you will at your end, usually MySQL but we support MS-SQL too.

We've got some pretty big clients: ESPN, USA Today are amongst them. We supplied Google with Olympic content during the Beijing Olympics.
