HTML is not an interface! (Score:2)
I know you're playing Devil's Advocate here, but when someone puts up a web page with data in it, they don't promise that the interface will never change. In fact they usually change it quite often, as you have to keep web designers busy ;--( OTOH if they setup a SOAP server you might have a better chance at the interface being more stable, or at least at your script complaining about a change, instead of breaking silently. Upgrading should be easier too.
Not that I like SOAP myself, mind you...
