You will need to use the developer API for the system you plan to work with.

Are you talking about "online users" for your app or FB?

If you are talking about for your app, set a flag in the database that is true when the login or perform other activities. Then you can query that flag when others login to display a list of online users. You may to track the time since last activity to show them as inactive or away. Also, I'm sure you would want to make sure that you are only showing friends that know each other so you will want to track that as well.
