I am on a similar hunt, but here is something i know so far.

You can use fbml's fb:request-form to send invites, example below:

    <fb:fbml>
<fb:request-form
action="index.php" 
method="POST" 
invite="true" 
type="YOUR APP NAME" 
content="Your text goes here. <?php echo htmlentities("<fb:req-choice url=\"YOUR CANVAS URL\" label=\"Authorize My Application\"") ?>" > 
<fb:multi-friend-selector showborder="false" actiontext="Invite your friends to use YOUR APP NAME."> 
</fb:request-form>
</fb:fbml>

is this what you are asking?

It's currently unsupported capability although facebook has indicated they will support it in the not-so-distant future.
