I'm looking for a "Chat Now" component to add to my website. I am using Drupal (running on a Windows server) if it matters.
I'm looking for something that the client initiates (I do not want to hound a client looking at my site). I want there to be no extra installs required for the client.
On my side, I want it to integrate with Skype or another common instant messaging tool.
I prefer free, but if it is low-cost (not a monthly fee) I would also be interested.
I like http://oggchat.com/ since it routes your chats to GTalk and GMail.

There's plenty of websites that offer this service for free, like this one.
The input/output for the service is perfect. Here's a url, and it gives me back some XML.
Does anyone know of a similar service that is available as an API, so I can just call it by passing a site url, and it return some xml?
Not free. But you could use the command line version of A1 Sitemap Generator. It can do what you want, see: http://www.microsystools.com/products/sitemap-generator/help/automate-sitemap-build-upload/
Otherwise, I believe you can find some old PHP scripts that create sitemaps, and then maybe tailor them to your needs? One example might be: http://enarion.net/tools/phpsitemapng/

I'm not sure how open the Mac platform is for 3rd party applications.
Would it be possible to write software that regulates internet usage?
Say I wanted to only allow internet usage between 5-6pm? Is that possible?
Any pointers on how to get started?
Yes. You can look at the Mac app Self Control:
http://visitsteve.com/made/selfcontrol/
This application disables a certain list of sites for a defined period of time. I know that the application uses the /etc/hosts file to disable access to these sites by setting all of these hosts to 127.0.0.1. Obviously a savvy user could override this method, but it works well.

I wondered if there was some stock market api that would allow me to create an indepenant website to display a certain corporation's stock info.
I've looked at Google Finance API and apparently you can only use it to make iGoogle gadgets so that won't work.
Yahoo actually does this quite well. They offer web services that you can get quotes from.

I believe you are incorrect about the Google Finance API (no longer available). There is a Javascript API which you should be able to use in any ordinary web application.

I want to add an auto-update feature for my application, but I don't have a server or a good host for making this feature. Can I use Dropbox or any other free services to add this feature to my programs?
As far as I can tell, there is nothing in the Dropbox terms and conditions to forbid you from using it to distribute updates for your software. I you want legal advice on what you can and cannot do, then please consult a lawyer, not a bunch of programmers.

I am just confused about can we put an paid application on itunes which is using open source libraries?
Like if we use XMPPFramework then can we make our application as paid application?
Regards.
It depends on the licenses under which you're using/distributing the libraries. If the license for a library allows you to use it in a commercial product, then yes. Read the licenses.
Here's the page for the library. Click on the licensing info in the left tool bar to read it for yourself.
I don’t know the restrictions of itunes, but the XMPPFramework is under the New BSD License, which allows your application using it to be sold.
