You would have to learn how to use the Skype API with C++. Take a look at the Developer Zone for some clues.

Also, there is a Skype4Pidgin plugin if you need an "all in one" messenger.

I think it uses a callback system with Skype running on a server, so the browser is the interface for controlling a remote version of Skype.

on that server is running only one instance of SKYPE? how they handle the multiuser login?

and the server belongs to Skype or Third Party? and if its possible to exchange data through webservices?

I don't have an iPhone so I don't know much about it. I would guess it's running on multiple servers which are load-balanced. I have no idea if they offer webservices - it's run by Shape Services, so they are the people to ask.

lets forget the fact that is a Iphone, lets make general, a 3G phone or smartphone..

if one instance of Skype is running on each server, how they handle the thousand of user accessing that server?
