 Only standard for routing results (and also requests) what I've found
is OpenLS routing XML. It is something what you describe, it has it's
limits, so real implementations are not as compatible to each other as
a standard should be, but it is good thing to get started with.
openrouteservice.org should be able to output it, and our mobile
mapping SDK supports it too, as backend service. From commercial
providers deCarta uses it also.
