In the process of developing the Ubuntu Netbook Remix, with the smaller screens of netbooks in mind, I wrote some patches to make pidgin work with less pixels.
There are three places which make pidgin over 1024x600.
1. Preference window
2. Account Manager when choose protocol to "SILC"
3. Add Buddy Pounce by right clicking on a user.
Now, these patches originally used hard-coded changes, because we were only targeting smaller screens. But I've modified it to check the resolution dynamically.

I'll attach the patches below. Thanks.
