Without writing a new module you'll be restricted to using client space
since you are authenticated as a client.  If you become a component you
get to access XDB directly with the <xdb/> element.  Here's a component

http://docs.jabber.org/general/html/component-intro.html

Generally it's sounding like you want to be a component to me.
