The XML contains data on the status of people. The nodes, showing the person data, should update without the complete page refreshing.
So the XML Feeds just updates existing nodes. At the moment I still have a problem that the hashing doesn't uniquely identify the existing nodes and new ones are created on every import, but that needs to be sorted. I have a unique indentifier for every node. I just haven't found the way yet to use it to avoid new nodes to be created.

The new data is coming in as new nodes or is it refreshing existing nodes?
Thanks Anoop

Thanks for the pointer. I'll check it out. By "updating by AJAX" I mean that the nodes get new data from the XML file which updates avery five minutes and the client get's the updated data through AJAX instead of refreshing the whole page.

For the order you can use javascript to order the nodes using a drag and drop implementation and store this as a cookie. Here is an example http://www.daviferreira.com/blog/exemplos/draganddrop/exemplo2.html There is no AJAX involved in ordering as nothing goes back to the server in terms of storage.

I use the XPath Feeds module to create these nodes from an XML document. I know I can create a view to display those nodes, but I need to update the nodes using AJAX and I'd love to allow the visitor to move nodes to the top so the nodes he/she is most interested in stay visible easily. The rest has to be displayed using the sort order defined in the view. What is the best way to use AJAX to update the nodes content in a view? How can I give the visitor (unregistered user) the ability to move nodes to the top? Thanks for any help.
