You could run the IRC server off your own computer, you'd have to setup the configuration file and all that, but it's not too difficult to do... only bad part is that if you turn your comp off, you'll have problems. With my "server" computer, it's always on 24/7. I don't think HostGator will run an IRC service, and I know they won't do it for free, either. Normally running an IRC service is left for companies and such... i'm just a computer dork enough to find the program I need, setup the config files and get the right software for it. 
Heck, I'm a big enough dork to be running Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition on my home computer lol.
