Does anyone know of an interface which would allow me to place
an icon on the right in the main menu bar? In a similar fashion to
Script Menu and YoupiKey/iKey?

While I can't answer your second question, I can answer this one. Take a look at the docs for NSStatusItem (available since 10.2):

http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Cocoa/Reference/ ApplicationKit/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSStatusItem.html#//apple_ref/occ/ cl/NSStatusItem

My HyperSpell <http://www.kuwan.net/hyperspell> application is implemented this way and the source code for the first beta is freely available.
