MobyRequest is designed specifically for this purpose.  If you look at 
the ChangeLog, there is an example:

    // Assumes you already have a service (mobyService) and data 
(mobyInputData) around
    mobyRequest = new MobyRequest(new CentralImpl());
    mobyRequest.setDebugMode(true);
    mobyRequest.setService(mobyService);
    mobyRequest.setInput((MobyDataInstance[]) mobyInputData);
    try{
        mobyRequest.invokeService();
    } catch(MobyException mobye){
        System.err.println("Failure in MOBY protocol: " + mobye);
    } catch(SOAPException soape){
        System.err.println("Failure in SOAP transaction: " + soape);
    } catch(NOSuccessException nse){
        System.err.println("Failure in MOBY logic (input was not 
acceptable " +
                           "for this service)" + nse);
    }


You can reuse the MobyRequest object as many times as you like...
