That's somewhat different from what I understood you to be asking before. I thought you were talking about a client using a programmatically specified endpoint thereby selecting a web service on a particular server.
Now you are talking about connecting to an Axis web application and Axis then selecting a given web service implementation. This is something that's hard-coded in the deployment descriptor, of course. The service element contains the wsdlServicePort parameter and its corresponding className parameter. If you want to switch service implementations, I suggest that you add a 'service type' parameter to each web service method and switch inside the methods, possibly even using Class.forName() etc. to load a class that implements a desired interface.
