XMPP to a webpage is going to add enormous code overhead for absolutely zero gain.
The way I would do it would be to choose you Ajax library, set up a repeated call from the webpage to your TG app to occur every X number of seconds, and just have the TG app return the data you want. From there, the updater on the web page would just update whatever field as often as it gets new data.
