There is a LinkedIn-recommended library for PHP that has a specific invite() method that you could use:

http://developer.linkedin.com/docs/DOC-1255

Direct link to code:

Essentially, you pass it the method of invitation (by email, member id), pass it the recipient, subject, message, and it creates the XML and sends it via OAuth to LinkedIn.

There's also a demo script included, and a live demo showing how to use the invite() method here:
