I will talk to Mark about how meebo handles this, if he can disclose that information. Unfortunately, I don't think it's that feasible since profile fetching is done on-demand and is not cached. It would cause tooltip rendering delays while waiting for data, sometimes as long as 10 or more seconds, depending upon the protocol. My guess is that meebo implements a cache, server-side. I don't really want to add a memory hogging implementation like that to this plugin. I think that's a better job for a plugin dedicated to this purpose.
