Is there a way to discover what security policies (usernametoken, x509, etc)
a service requires (similar to how you can interagate a services wsdl to see
what methods it exposes)?

Hello Todd,

  Yes there is ... The WS-* standard for this is metadata exchange. Try
Plumbwork oranges WS-MetadataExchange implmentation [0]

Until WS-MetadataExchange (and Dilip's implementation in Plumbwork Orange),
there only mechanism of requesting policy from a service endpoint was
through WS-PolicyAttachment. That stated, there is support for
WS-PolicyAttachment in the WSE, albeit indirectly, by implementing the
Microsoft.Web.Services2.Messaging.SoapService.GetDescription method.
