using introspection for methodname retrieval:
ServerProxy("url")

method names given:
ServerProxy("url", ["methodName1", ...])

method names given and using HTTP authentication:
ServerProxy("url", ["methodName1", ...], "user", "pass")

using introspection and HTTP authentication:
ServerProxy("url", "user", "pass")

parameters:

url The URL of the service providing the methods.
methodNames An array of names of known methods the service provides.
An XMLRPCMethod will be constructed for each method name and is added to the service object.
