…You can ping Live.com with the following URL example:
http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://www.YourDomainName.com/sitemap.xml
source: http://forums.microsoft.com/webmaster/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2827197&SiteID=79
Notice that your “sitemap” needs to be in xml format.
I tried this myself and here is what their server send back:
<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml“
<head>
<title>Sitemap Generator - Live Search Webmaster Tools</title>
</head>
<body>Thanks for submitting your sitemap.</body>
</html>
