I tried creating the project file once I realized it wasn't available but just adding in all the .h and .cpp files from the myth pvrclient folder won't compile. I even checked my build settings against a different pvr addon to make sure i used the correct build extension and other settings. I guess I don't know enough about how the myth plugin needs to be built to setup the project. Examining the makefile lead me to believe I needed to compile some of the elements separately but I'm not sure if that's right either.
In any case some basic information on how the projects needs to be built or it's dependencies would be great, I"d be happy to give creating the VS project another try.
As per the main Makefile
1) Build libmythxml folder
2) Build libmythsql folder
3) Build the top level folder, e.g. client.cpp etc.
The includes needed to build are in each folders Makefile.
I don't really know how Visual Studio does its builds and I don't have a Windows machine to test on. If you do manage to get it to work, send a pull request with the folder structure the same as for tvheadend, e.g. files inside a "project" folder, and I'll add them in.
