InCommon Operations produces such a JSON metadata file daily:

https://incommon.org/federation/metadata/all-IdPs.json

The schema of this file is attached to this message.

We use this file (and others like it) in numerous web applications
hosted in the incommon.org domain. The JSON is retrieved over HTTPS
using simple AJAX calls.

The problem of course is how to leverage this data in cross-domain
fashion. We are considering our options (such as JSONP) but we're not
quite there yet. In the mean time, I'd be interested in hearing your
requirements.

Thanks,
Tom
