No external methods currently supported for status message update, but see this handy hack for a way of doing this through the mobile method.

Example of the HTML that needs to be parsed to grab the "post_form_id" are:

With

an existing presence message:
name="post_form_id" value="bbbeb01a1abceb828a31a5208840bfdd" />
Peter is short diversion to release updated PresenceRouter at Reinvented Office in Charlottetown, PE, Canada. 
<small>(1m ago)</small>

Without an existing presence message:

name="post_form_id" value="3ee270e046ec1ec8a709324ea4c17598" />
Keep your friends up to date on your current status.<br />
<small>Tijs is:</small><br /><input type="text" name="status" size="10" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="update" value="Update" class="button" /></form></div>

The original PHP code to parse out the post_form_id was:

preg_match('/name="post_form_id" value="(.*)" \/>'.ucfirst($first_name).'/', $page, $form_id);
