You do not need mod_rest for that. Lastest ejabberd release support mod_http_api and can expose all ejabberd commands as API.

There is no command to kick a user from a MUC room. However, the command you should use is likely the one to change affiliation for the user.

If you set affiliation to outcast, the user will be kicked out of the room and prevented to join again.

For example, from command-line (ejabberdctl), it would be:

ejabberdctl set_room_affiliation room conference.localhost user123@localhost outcast

Similar command can be used from mod_http_admin.

Another option is also to use XMPP and let an admin account set the proper affiliation from a client or a bot.
