My favorite method is this:

OUT: <message type='chat' to='[email protected]/pidgin'><body>Hey,
what's your IP address? Run `ifconfig` (`ipconfig /all` on Windows) to
check.</body></message>

IN: <message type='chat' from='[email protected]/pidgin'
to='[email protected]/pidgin'><body>127.0.1.1</body></message>

In all seriousness though, IPs are (possibly) disclosed when doing file
transfers or other peer-to-peer activities (i.e. Voice/Video when Pidgin
supports it), but that's about it.
