Correct. This is also a bit special to OGo, in SKYRiX the load balancer 
assigns a port the started instance. Anyway ...

Yes.

Yes. And both services should be accessed through Apache. So you can 
map /RPC2 in your Apache to the XML-RPC daemon and /OGo to the WebUI.

We'll publish an English XML-RPC docu later, it's basically ready. In 
the meantime you might want to look at the various README.* files in 
the Documentation section (very rough).

That you can connect using a webbrowser is pure luck and not an 
intended/documented feature ;-)
