You could use the Python bindings. The following simple script exposes all the 
functions in the MythTV class. The Python bindings aren't complete but it's 
pretty trivial to add things.

#!/usr/bin/python

from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
from MythTV import MythTV

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(('localhost', 8080))
server.register_introspection_functions()

server.register_instance(MythTV())

server.serve_forever()
