I let myalerts do all work if you have new items only apply style of jgrowl. I like use ajax as you say but many request every x time in some hosts suppose to do many requests and blank pages or error most of time free hostings.
I use both ways but i finally decide to let myalerts do his job and take var of this with conditionals and apply their own stylization xD. Only appears like the image shared by fma965.
EDIT: I let image shows what i'm talking about, but the best way to get new items maybe with AJAX you can write and get an alert xD, but on this way only when myalerts say on new page at send message you can see if you get new alert xD, it's only style change for both cases and you can add some more styles, like red color or blue or green, yellow etc, i say to an user how to do this, because he needs to put some colors on some cases xD.

{
global $mybb, $parser;
if (!is_object($parser))
{
require_once MYBB_ROOT.'inc/class_parser.php';
$parser = new postParser;

if (!verify_post_check($mybb->input['my_post_key'], true))
{
xmlhttp_error($lang->invalid_post_code);
}
myalerts_global(true);
if ($mybb->input['action'] == "newalert"){
echo $mybb->user['unreadAlerts'];
}
}
4 - Create new stylesheet wit name "jgrowl.css" and add (repeat this step to all templates that you use)
/** Special IE6 Style Positioning **/
.ie6 {
position: absolute;
}
.ie6.top-right {
right: auto;

left: expression( ( 0 - jGrowl.offsetWidth + ( document.documentElement.clientWidth ? document.documentElement.clientWidth : document.body.clientWidth ) + ( ignoreMe2 = document.documentElement.scrollLeft ? document.documentElement.scrollLeft : document.body.scrollLeft ) ) + 'px' );
top: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe = document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop ) ) + 'px' );
}

top: expression( ( 0 - jGrowl.offsetHeight + ( document.documentElement.clientHeight ? document.documentElement.clientHeight : document.body.clientHeight ) + ( ignoreMe = document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop ) ) + 'px' );
}
.ie6.bottom-left {
left: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe2 = document.documentElement.scrollLeft ? document.documentElement.scrollLeft : document.body.scrollLeft ) ) + 'px' );
top: expression( ( 0 - jGrowl.offsetHeight + ( document.documentElement.clientHeight ? document.documentElement.clientHeight : document.body.clientHeight ) + ( ignoreMe = document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop ) ) + 'px' );
}
.ie6.center {
left: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe2 = document.documentElement.scrollLeft ? document.documentElement.scrollLeft : document.body.scrollLeft ) ) + 'px' );
top: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe = document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop ) ) + 'px' );
width: 100%;
}
/** jGrowl Styling **/
.jGrowl {
z-index: 9999;
color: #fff;
font-size: 12px;
position: fixed;
}
.jGrowl.top-left {
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
}
.jGrowl.top-right {
right: 0px;

.center .jGrowl-notification, .center .jGrowl-closer {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.jGrowl .jGrowl-notification, .jGrowl .jGrowl-closer {
background-color: #000;
opacity: .85;
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=85)";
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=85);
zoom: 1;
width: 235px;
padding: 10px;
margin-top: 5px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 1em;
text-align: left;
display: none;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.jGrowl .jGrowl-notification {
min-height: 40px;
}
.jGrowl .jGrowl-notification,
.jGrowl .jGrowl-closer {

}
/** Hide jGrowl when printing **/
@media print {
.jGrowl {
display: none;
}
}
5 - Edit headerinclude templates (repeat this step to all templates that you use)
5.1 - Add code below after all
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/jquery.jgrowl.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
window.setInterval(function() {
if({$mybb->user['usergroup']}!=1) {
$.ajax({
type: "post",
url: 'xmlhttp.php?action=newalert&my_post_key='+my_post_key,
complete: function(request){
if (request.responseText > 0) {
$.jGrowl('You has new alert '+request.responseText, { position: 'bottom-left' });
}
}
});
}
}, 60 * 1000);
});
</script>
5.2 - I put default 60 secound to check if has new alert, but you can change 60 with any value you want

I made new stylesheet with name "jgrowl.css" contained the code you told.
And where do I add to?
Also, I do not understand (repeat this step to all templates that you use).
Could you explain them more simple words? Thanks in advance.
