Hey David, There's quite a few ways to get th data you're asking. If you're using PHP5 you can use SimpleXML (http://us2.php.net/simplexml) which would be really straight forward. Somewhere along the lines of $xml- >Response->Placemark->Point->coordinates or if you feel like using xpath something like /Response/Placement/Point/coordinates could do the trick...
My XML is a little rusty and nothing is tested, but I'm sure you can figure it out from here.
