Dimensional (volumetric) weight calculator API

Compute dimensional weight = (L·W·H)/divisor (cm, default carrier divisor 5000) and the billable weight = max(dimensional, actual) — the parcel-pricing rule every carrier applies. Answers 'dimensional weight of this box','will I be billed on dim or actual weight','volumetric weight for shipping'.
