Could we use webservices instead of redirects for SSO multiples sites with different domain? Any sample code? Thanks!

I don't think so.  Redirects allow the browser to send the request to the server, which will include any relevant authentication cookies.  An arbitrary server-to-server request wouldn't include those cookies.

Thanks Andrew, it does make sense now. What about using an iframe for the redirects? Would that easy the loading time? I was thinking about having the RP checking on every request with the provider if there was a change on the login status.
Thanks in advance!

Yes, iframes can be used (with OpenID in immediate mode).  But the HTML/JS required to do so is mostly left as an exercise to the reader.  There are some ASP.NET controls (if you're using web forms) or samples that may help you (nerddinner.com) in this area.  They don't do what you're trying to do, but they demonstrate some common iframe and js patterns for openid that may assist you.
