Answer 1

You will need to specify timeout as the proxy is slow, and the request take time, and no need for any cookie.
function skype_resolver($username) {
$url = "http://skyperesolver.net/api/?isapi=true&get=skype&user=" . $username;
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true); // If url has redirects then go to the final redirected URL.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 0); //to return the transfer as a string of the return value of curl_exec() instead of outputting it out directly.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, '177.12.236.216:80');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30); //The maximum number of seconds to allow cURL functions to execute.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, '/tmp/cookies.txt');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, '/tmp/cookies.txt');
$output = curl_exec($ch);
$info = curl_getinfo($ch);
curl_close($ch);
}

Answer 2

You need to specify the proxy port:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, "YOUR PROXY HOST");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYPORT, "YOUR PROXY PORT");
