I did look at the _contact_demexp_server(), but I still do not 
understand why I cannot retrieve, for example, the max number of 
questions. In the Drupal code, a simple

$ds_max_question_id = _contact_demexp_server('max_question_id', 0);
echo $ds_max_question_id . 'server max';

can retieve the max number of questions. My PHP code is quite similar:

$message->xmlrpcmsg('max_question_id', $cookie);
$max_Q_ret = $server->send($message);
print $max_Q_ret->value();

but the returned response from the server has no meaning (like 
"379895601", or "415675044", or... I got a different value each time... 
so I think I'm totally off, but do not understand what I'm doing wrong). 
The XML response from the server is (for example),

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<methodResponse>
<params>
<param>
<value><int>415675044</int></value>
</param>
</params>
</methodResponse>


Note that at the beginning of the code, I login then at the end I log 
out, and these operations seem to execute fine. For example if I login 
using an invalid name, I get the XML response:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<methodResponse>
<fault>
<value><struct>
<member>
<name>faultCode</name>
<value><int>410</int></value>
</member>
<member>
<name>faultString</name>
<value><string>rt_bad_login</string></value>
</member>
</struct></value>
</fault>
</methodResponse>

I'm stuck!! Help!! ;)
