After a lot of effort, I found the answer, here is a solution for those stuck in the same position.

This goes in your plugin page where you are getting posts for a user etc.

Then in your theme's functions.php, put your function to do your ajax request:

function loadMore() {

    $blogger_id = $_GET['id'];
    // get your $_GET variables sorted out

    // setup your query to get what you want
    query_posts('posts_per_page=' . $posts . '&author='.$blogger_id);

    // initialsise your output
    $output = '';

    // the Loop
    while (have_posts()) : the_post();

        // define the structure of your posts markup

    endwhile;

    // Reset Query
    wp_reset_query();

    die($output);

}

Then, just after the closing of your function, put in the action hooks

add_action('wp_ajax_loadMore', 'loadMore');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_loadMore', 'loadMore'); // not really needed

That's it!
