You can write a small XMPP client that logins to the server, gets the roster and logouts.

If you are admin of the ejabberd server, you can install mod_admin_extra, enable it, and execute this ejabberd command, example:

$ ejabberdctl get_roster user1 localhost     
user2@localhost user2   none    out     SomeGroup
user3@localhost user3   none    out

If you prefer to query this command using XML-RPC, install ejabberd_xmlrpc. If you prefer REST, install mod_rest.
