Not being able to find any good references for how one codes communications with remote Web Services, either other Drupal sites wanting to communicate with my Drupal Services implemented API or non-Drupal sites communicating with my API... I figured it out for both cases, put together a working version that I have in my current project, and then wrote this documentation page for the community: http://drupal.org/node/1070066
It shows a simple PHP object that handles communications to a remote API. There are two versions of the PHP object, one using CURL and one using the Drupal API. Additionally, there's example logic for how one would use these communications object.
Enjoy!
