WordPress v3.5 introduces the filter xmlrpc_enabled:
add_filter('xmlrpc_enabled', '__return_false');
You can add this code to your wp_config.php after the line require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php'); if you want to disable XML-RPC for your site.
from here
Also, there are a few plugins in the plugin repository that do this for you or block access to it. Try that option.

I have it disabled on my sites, but it depends on your needs.
If you're concerned about security (as you should be) check out iThemes Security or a similar plugin and get your site locked down from attack. It's protected mine from attack a few times.

I would, due to the very easy to access attack methods for the people who'd like to pay to get a site downed for about 600 seconds. Becomes a huge issue if they continue. I'd do it based on your needs on WordPress.
