What you are looking for is a Proxy. A Forward Proxy to be precise.
It can be a simple HTTP Proxy. No need to get XMPP involved.

For example see:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html
"The forward proxy is activated using the ProxyRequests directive.
Because forward proxys allow clients to access arbitrary sites through
your server and to hide their true origin, it is essential that you
secure your server so that only authorized clients can access the proxy
before activating a forward proxy."
