It would have to be Oracle themselves to publish TPoX results. It seems that Oracle has been experimenting with TPoX, as you can see in section 7.2 of this Oracle paper:
http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/1/1454177.pdf

There the authors write: “In practice, we have seen that a more realistic data centric XML use-case is that of a large collection of moderately sized XML documents. TPOX [60] models such XML use-cases.”

I agree with this statement, as it underlines that TPoX is a useful benchmark for a certain class of data-centric XML applications.

I for one would love to see you all do this.
