Setting iChat status from a web app

Question

I'd like my web app to be able to set ichat status: Available or Away + Custom message

Basically my web app is related to tracking and status so at present, you have to remember to update both (if you use iChat), which is a pain.

Is there a way to do this? using Javascript or the like?

Alternatively, the other way around would work too but I guess that would involve creating some sort of extension or plugin for iChat.
