Some rules for selecting a product will be stored in a Dynamics AX 2009 database and returned to a web service written in C#.  The web service will leverage BizTalk 2009 BRE.  AX 2009 does not have X++ in the CLR, so it can't directly use the Microsoft.Rules assembly.  The service would use the FileRuleStore class to unmarshall the XML retrieved from an AX AIF service to create the RuleSet.  Unfortunately, I can't find the RulesFFP.xsd with the "http://schemas.microsoft.com/businessruleslanguage/2002" namespace in the SDK, on Microsoft.com, or the Internet.  Having the schema would allow me to write X++ to create the rules XML and the AIF service would use that schema instead of having to create new one and then unmarshall the XML and laboriously call the BRE API.  Is the .xsd available somewhere to download.  Thank you.

So, I think you're over complicating this a bit.

"Having the schema would allow me to write X++ to create the rules XML and the AIF service would use that schema instead of having to create new one and then unmarshall the XML and laboriously call the BRE API."

That's not really how it works.  If you wrap the BRE in a service call, you still just pass over the Polity Facts.  The Policy/Rules are still managed the same was is in BizTalk.
