    Most sites that you see use instant messaging are using a underlying application (for instance Meebo uses libgaim (now libpurple) and a C application).

    PHP might be an okay candidate for a frontend, but it will most likely have to use something else on the backend.

    **EDIT**
    Assuming you want a persistent connection ;)

    I am a gonna tell you a better way :)
    far better :)
    Use CURL and connect to http://mm.yahoo.com it's a the WAP browser for mobile cell phones. Very easy , no encryptions,etc ;)
    You may also remove the mobile status i think , also you can remove/add friends, create groups, send group messages :)
