I would choose the one I was most comfortable, competent, and familiar with.
I would also have to consider which one was the easiest for me to conceal without making the draw cumbersome or time-consuming. Open carry is not permissible in my state.
As an aside I would also lean towards the piece that was chambered in a round I have in the household already.
Of those three I would go with an XD9 as it is in one of my favorite calibers, is a weapon I have handled extensively, and would be the best for my frame for concealment.

Do you own these three weapons? Or are you planning on getting them?

For concealed carry I would go for the P320. But not in .40S&W or .357SIG, but in 9mm instead.

Haven't handled the first 2. XD compact would be my choice.

I'd carry the XD9 Compact -- greater capacity, probably less recoil (thus, better accuracy and faster follow-on shots).
I would go with the Sig if concealment is not an issue (and if so I would buy the smaller grip frame). If you were planning on having 16 rounds with the XD, I'd guess they end up being similar in grip length anyway. I've shot a few P320's in 9mm, and was very happy with the pistol.

I would personally go for the SIG in 9mm. I get the whole buying what you can shoot well thing but honestly you should be able to shoot all of them well if your fundamentals are solid. I have heard nothing but great things about the SIG and it has a 1000 round torture test on YouTube that it passes with flying colors. I also like that the modular setup allows you to do things like replace a cracked frame for cheap and you can have it shipped straight to your door. Just seems like a real shooters pistol that you could be hard on and upkeep yourself pretty easily. It's on my list.
