I have been able to get this to work. But only with FedEx. I haven’t tried with UPS. I also have been extending a lot of the FedEx methods, and I am currently working on adding Tracking methods. I hope to post some of my work back to the gem repository. If you can wait for a week, I can post some patch files later.
But in order to get this to work, you need to have a FedEx account number. You can use this api to request a test meter number. Then you will have to certify your application with FedEx before you can use their live servers, and get a live meter number.
Also, FedEx just changed over to their new SOAP/WSDL based API. The old XML API still works, but it’s difficult to find information about it on their website.
Best place to get started is here:

This has links to apply for the API certification process.
