You would have to have the socket remain open but Im not sure that is a 
good way .. the options I know of @ the moment:

aim:goim?screenname=screenname&message=Hi.+Are+you+there?

(Client already has aim protocol registered with Mozilla/IE)

http://simpleaim.sourceforge.net/

(You could do some funky javascript calls I beleive - not sure)

http://www.aim.com/developer.adp?aolp=

(Wait for whatever dev docs become available)
