I don't think this is supported b/c friendship creation must be
initiated by a POST request, meaning that some deliberate action must
be taken on the part of the user (e.g. clicking a "Follow" button on
twitter's site). I'm pretty sure this is intentional as it was
changed to act this way to prevent automatic follow spamming that was
occurring some time ago.
I think the best you can do is just point them to the user's profile
on twitter and hope that they login and click "follow".

Hello,
I have a third party site and want to connect twitter users. I am
not having
them authenticate, its more of a listing service.
Say I have a button that says "follow" by a profile on my site, and
I want
to just point at a URL on twitter that would create a friendship
after they
log in on twitter.
So again, 1. I am on the third party site, 2. I click a link
pointing at
some URL like http://twitter.com/friendships/create/al3x, 3. I
login to
twitter on twitter.com and 4. I am now on twitter and a friendship
has
occured
Thanks!
