I'm working with another (very unusual) webserver on our intranet. When I wanted to do graphs recently I settled on an XML output from my other server, and a PHP routine on apache that produces the graph. The other server references the PHP which outputs a .png sending enough information to that routine to request XML from the first server. Our applications are not heavily used, but this works well, and I will probably use it to create other forms of output as well.

My solution was very similiar of what you are trying to do, but my "internal" format is not XML but a group of arrays (faster processing). Then using some OOP I created the diferent "output formats" for my reports, therefore I have a microsoft excel object, a pdf object, a html, an xml object, etc. (you get the idea).
