I would like to give pidgin a try, but I don't like the default theme for the list, there is too much space between the contacts, I would like to style it in a more minimal way so i can see more contacts in less space. Despite my (not so thorough searches) I didn't find any theme specically for my list, I found for the icons and the sounds … any proposals?

A simple alternative option, which lets you fit in twice as many entires, is to hide the buddy details of all the entires. Go to Buddies -> Show and then untick "Buddy Details."
