XAML is the markup language from Microsoft to create RIA's and one of the cornerstones in Silverlight, MS's "new" primary RIA platform. MXML is the markup language used in Adobe Flex, Adobe's primary RIA platform and has been around for quite a shorter time than XAML.
Here is a direct link to the comparison I did:

An interesting observation is related to the geographical distribution of the searches, seeing that India is top-ranking in regards to Country, however in regards to City its Redmond, VA (The home of Microsoft).
Another interesting point is that Denmark and Danish is at the time of this comparison (it's off course subject to change, partly due to the dynamics of the Google indexing system based on statistically enhanced numbers and off course due to the fact that the numbers eventually do change over the course of time) ranked 10 and 6 respectively, positioning the Danish RIA community high on the international rank.
Combine this with the positions of our brothering countries, Sweden and Norway, Scandinavia is definitely in the super-liga of RIA regions.
