I am a semi nuwbie... and I thin that this is a multistep quesiton.
does anyone know of a way that, based on zip code, there is a service that will return a list of congressional representatives, ideally in some kind of xml format?

second question, what would be the best strategy to do this kind of thing? which modules would I be using?

Finally, I want to automatically update some fields after the zip code has been entered. this information would then become part of an accounts profile ( as a separate node ).

i found this link...

it seems to give me what I want, and it can be restful. problem is that I have never done restful stuff before. could someone give me a hint on how to do this? which modules?

also, If i want to maintain this information locally in my database, how would that be done?

Not a small undertaking
