dodge conky bar on maximize. xfce. [solved]

I am adding a small conky bar to the bottom of my screen right above the panel.  My windows manager is xfce.  I was wondering if there was a way to have windows maximize to a few pixels above where they usually do so the bar is visible.

If it makes a difference I'm also using compiz.

edit:  added a second panel underneath the first one.  made it just tall enough to cover the bottom bar and then made it transparent.

Instead of using a second panel, conky can act as one. Use own_window_type panel in conky config, stop conky (killall conky) and restart it.
