I am not personally familiar with their product, but it looks like one of the several "all-in-one" clients that connect to a multiplicty of networks simultaneously. I don't think there is any real magic in that, though there's certainly work required to interface with all of those various networks.

Could some one point the implementation of federators/aggregatros such as nimbuzz .

When inter working with google it act as a federator .
But if you give your yahoo user name or password , whether nimbuzz server is acting as a client for you .

Or operators like nimbuzzz is having special agreement with yahoo, MSN and uses some polling or watcher mechanism to get mmy buddy's status for me?

In theory, yes. I can federate between Packetizer's XMPP server (running OpenFire) and GoogleTalk's servers without any problem at all. So, assuming that the SIP/XMPP gateway is designed properly, it ought to work.

One company that provides hosted XMPP services is ClearText. I am not familiar with the company, but I assume that is the kind of service you're seeking?

I expect there will be more such companies, and perhaps there are already.

Federated for VoIP, or only for IM and presence? For the latter there is no list because XMPP uses an open federation model like email, not a closed peering model like telephony. For VoIP, there is not a lot of deployment yet (mostly Google Talk and Nimbuzz, with more coming online in the relatively near future).
