XBMC has built-in support for remote controls. I have a USB/IR emitter hooked up to my machine, and I can use my harmony perfectly. Check your preferences (System/Input Devices)

• Various IR remote controls, wireless keyboards and wireless mice

XBMC should support (out of the box) MCE Remotes and remotes that show up as a USB keyboard or HID device, IIRC.
