I try to send keys with xdotool to Pidgin, not works, what to do?

I would like to automate some things in Pidgin messenger, to add multiple buddies at once. I am using the xdotool package.
I used command "xdotool selectwindow" to get the Buddy List window ID. And then

xdotool key --window  48234591 ctrl+b

However it doesn't seems to work, what to do?
Other applications, windows get the keystrokes correctly.
