XNA 4 for Windows Phone 7 can only make asynchronous calls. You might find the code at the bottom of this post helpful as well.

Code from that post:

protected override void Initialize()
{
    string webServiceAddress = @"http://localhost/service/service1.asmx";           
    string methodName = "HelloWorld";

    string webServiceMethodUri = string.Format("{0}/{1}", webServiceAddress, methodName);

    HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(webServiceMethodUri);
    httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";

    httpWebRequest.BeginGetResponse(Response_Completed, httpWebRequest);

    base.Initialize();
 }

 void Response_Completed(IAsyncResult result)
 {
    HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)result.AsyncState;
    HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.EndGetResponse(result);

    using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
    {
        string xml = streamReader.ReadToEnd();

        using(XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(xml)))
        {
             reader.MoveToContent();
             reader.GetAttribute(0);
             reader.MoveToContent();
             message = reader.ReadInnerXml();
        }
    }
 }
