I guess it depends what you're actually trying to achieve, but in general 
speaking as a lazy man I'd avoid as far as possible re-inventing anyone else's 
  wheels.

In that spirit - and a Mac solution only, but hey there's reasons why that's 
still, sometimes, a superior platform - I just checked and Skype appears to 
have a proper AppleScript dictionary, including AppleScript access to the 
Skype API (cool).  Looks to me like that lets you do pretty much everything
