I think the major advantage is the separation of data and presentation layer. For example you could query(XQuery) the database resulting XML and then attach presentation to that data via XSLT. That way you can easily change the layout without messing around with the data. Very critical when designing extensible software. Loads of other examples with some googling :D

Where are these technologies really getting used. For example just
guessing, but are they in Financial Java Applications etc..?

What is the current state of XML-based technologies in the today's technologies?

Specifically, is XSLT, XPath, XQuery, etc. being replaced by new industry standards? Or... are they all alive and well?

They are alive and well.
