Just started looking into the Electrum protocol layer "Stratum" myself. The documentation sucks a bit, but have some links:

Check this topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309654.0

Or maybe use libbitcoin-server which has a ZMQ based API: https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-server
(used by Airbitz and Darkwallet afaik)

PHP binding for ZMQ: http://zeromq.org/bindings:php
