Looks like its a new feature coming out in Lion, just now saw it on the feature list:
From apples site: Service plug-ins Service plug-ins from third-party developers let you add new chat services to iChat. Installing a plug-in is simple. Once it’s downloaded, double-click it. Plug-ins run in a separate process to help ensure that they won’t damage your system.
