How would I approach this. I'm looking to make a little section in my sidebar that lists all my authors, their post count and their gravatar floating to the left of their name and post count. This code lists the authors in a list format, where would I start to customize it how I want?
<?php list_authors(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE); ?>
First, list_authors is deprecated, you should look at:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_authors
Unfortunately, that won't get your author's gravatars. If you're comfortable with PHP you could write your own function, based on wp_list_authors, which is defined in this file:
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.2.1/wp-includes/author-template.php

Unfortunately I don't know to much about PHP but I am able to edit and customize php from time to time. If someone could just give me a jumpstart I can definitely find where to go from there ;o .
Here are some helpful links, I think the 1st is just what you need:

That last link, I was able to customize it exactly how I want it. I have 1 question though.
1.) How would I go about getting the users website from their profile get_user_website (exampe I know it doesn't work). so I can display it under their user name ?
Also, is there anyway I can get a user post count on the right of their name? I'm used to customizing php but I'm skeptical of doing it within the functions

Any help with this yet? I don't want to bump nor make a new thread so I'm not sure what to do o.O
You might find some useful code snippets in Author_Templates.
Sorry, it's not clear to me;

The last link was a Google search... Are you using a plugin or PHP functions within your template to display this?
