I've been thinking about this kind of setup for a while now. I'll likely be trying to set one up in a week or so. (by the way has anyone any advice for a cheap adapter that will allow xboxes to join a wireless network?)
Webserver/or FTP you could even send and recieve it over samba (I think. XBMC has the client but not the server. However I assume your media server is running it so it sounds possible).
Maybe it would be a good idea to do a checksumon the local Userdata (and save it to some file along with the date and time the checksum was done which will be sent over to the server with it) and compare it to the one on the latest remote database (done when it was sent over) to prevent syncing the database when the xbox is uptodate.
Actually I think this is a function we would do well to look at integrating with Official XBMC release rather than simply being a python script.
Similarly with TV links and XOT.
