This looks right to me.

They both seem to be what we are seeing:

$ ruby xtest.rb
xtest.rb:7: warning: method redefined; discarding old call2

class XMLRPC::Client
   def call2(method, *args)
     request = create().methodCall(method, *args)
     puts request
     data = do_rpc(request, false)
     parser().parseMethodResponse(data)
   end
end

server  = XMLRPC::Client.new2("http://websearch.ramaui.com/ramxml.php")
results = server.call( "lists", "dbid"    => "dbid1113086003",
                                 "getlist" => "district" )

__END__

What make you think this isn't working?
