Already have sold the majority of my BTC on MtGox to buy mining gear.

Sounds like a scam to me.

Buy looking at the number of bitcoin clients connected to the IRC channel you'd get a rough estimate.

I'll look in to open sourcing... Maybe if I receive enough donations.
How about I set a some donation goals. I can only think of two, considering I have AdMob ads in place.

1. If I get a total of 10 btc I'll remove the ads.
2. At 20 btc I'll opensource it.

I don't believe it can be done. Unless you has access to their wallet.dat

The important part is not loosing your wallet.dat file. It contains all you private keys for the public/private key transaction. As long as you have the private key to the public key to which the bitcoin was sent you will have them eventually. The receiving party doesn't have to have the bitcoin client running at the moment of the transaction. Because when you start the client it will is a sense "Catch up" on previous transactions.  Hope this answers your question.

Sorry. I have no experience with iOS development.

It's not much of a description but then again, I'm a coder not a publicist.
