Did you check out https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/1910?

This isn't something that the installer can/should do - the
configuration in Pidgin is tied to the user account on the OS, so i t
isn't something that the installer would be able to do (presumably the
installer wouldn't run as the end user who is going to actually run
Pidgin).

The ticket linked to above has an example perl script that you could
customize / rewrite and attach to either a pidgin startup script or to
a user login process to create an account within Pidgin for you.
