we are using python http call with some xapi call to make our vm exports 
for backup. We have published the source of our inhouse backup scripts 
tisbackup. You can browse the source on github 
https://github.com/tranquilit/TISbackup/blob/master/libtisbackup/backup_xva.py).
We also sometime alse use xe command in scripts to copy the snapshot to 
our backup server. In order to use the xe binary, you just have to copy 
the /opt/xensource/bin folder to your backup server, install stunnel4 
(for a debian wheezy) and then you can use the xe command the same way 
you do on the xen server.
Hope this helps,

Denis
