More insight about the usefulness of alternateUrl from one of my esteemed
colleagues who built the service:
actually, it's useful for our developers for debugging. You can point the
Java client to a proxy that logs and displays messages, then forwards them
to Google. SOAPScope is good at this.

No this is a parameter that we use inside Google for testing the server
against a development server.
From the outside you should not need it.
Sorry, I should add that to the documentation!

Two of the constructors for the AdWordsUser class in the Java client
library have an argument that is an "alternate" URL that should be used
when accessing the API's web services. (From inspection of
ReportServiceLocator.java it seems that logic to cause recourse to such
an alternate URL must be included within your own code.)
Does anyone know if any alternate URLs for the AdWords API web services
have actually been published by Google?
Thanks,
