You should need go to the red5recorder site and see if there's a tutorial, but the code is fairly straightforward.

The NetConnection class connects to the media server, the NetStream class sends the messages, and event listeners set against the NetConnection instance capture the responses from the server.

You can use URLLoader to pass data back and forth. See this answer for examples on how to use the URLLoader class. Set up a timer and keep polling the server in every 5 seconds or so for new chat messages. Check out long polling if you want a better real life chatting.
