For what it's worth, the official AIM client allows you to put it in a 
proxy-only mode, and I think it even mentions privacy as a reason to use it.

You can do the same in Psi by setting your Data Transfer Port to 0.  This will 
make Psi not listen on any ports and your addresses will be omitted in the
