I'm writing a simple library that communicates with a web service and am 
wondering if there are any generally well regarded methods for batching 
HTTP requests?

The problem with most web services is that they require a list of 
sequential commands to be executed in a certain order to complete a 
given task (or at least the one I am using does) so having to manually 
call each command is a bit of a pain. How would you go about the design 
of a library to interact with these services?

Any help is greatly appreciated :).
