How much hack are you willing to accept?  You can send IQ packets
directly
to the user at resource and fill something meaningful in Query field.  Or
you
could use a custom message packet instead of IQ. Perhaps the best option
for
you would simply be to send a presence packet to the server and put
something
meaningful in the Status field.  The presence packets get delivered to
everyone,
although the senders resource is typically stripped off when the server
pushes
it out.  For your application though it shouldn't matter.
