I'm currently in a group composed of a warlock, seeker, ranger, bard, and a psion. I've decided to play a pixie, but can't seem too choose a class for the little bugger. I'm not asking for builds or character designs, just some ideas as to what class I should pick, and why. Thanks all!

Any.
Seriously, think of a concept. Are you going to be Tinkerbell, giving allies the ability to fly and maybe distract your enemy by flying in their faces? Are you going to be a more bloodthirsty sort of pixie?
If you wanted optimal, then go for the classes whose primary stats are in line with the pixie's bonus to stats. But otherwise, sky's the limit 
Take it from someone whose favorite characters include a Half-Elf Fighter, a Dwarven Wizard, a Gnome Fighter PMC Wizard, a stealthy Minotaur Rogue (INT type), and a Halfling Knight (only the last two weren't played by me :p ).

Ranged Beast Master Ranged with a Raptor pet you ride.
Beast form Druid with your form being something small that flies and is vicious, like a flying squirrel.

I played a Pixie Brawling Fighter.
Wrestled a Brown bear and won. Good times.

I'm trying to go for fun *and* optimal. Sticking with classes that are in line with pixie stat bonuses would be best, but no critcal. I'd like to pick something that allows interesting roleplaying situations in addition to good combat ability.

Vampire.
Pixie Vampire
People will think you're just some kind of oversized mosquito.
During the day you sleep in your tiny little coffin that your party members have to carry around. Of course, if you irritate them, they'll just put rocks on top of it to keep you from getting out.

Pixies are good for a whole bunch of things:
Rogue, thief, wizard, warlock (fey pact in particular), monk, fighter (pixie brawler MC monk for master of the fist. Fly up to people, grab them by their nostrils and start punching them in the eyes with what, at paragon when you take Shock Trooper as your PP, will amount to a fullblade), warlord (lazy), Executioner, druid, ranged ranger (though weapon choice screws you a bit here) etc etc etc. There are not that many classes which Pixies are truly bad at.

An update: it seems we've lost our bard, so we're currently leaderless. I'll have to fill that slot, so the question becomes: what leader class should my pixie take?

It depends on what you want to play, if you are looking for possible effectiveness then here: Possible Optimization: Controller
- Psion
- Warlock (Binder)
- Wizard (Mage) [Enchanter]
- Leader
- Bard
- Bard (Skald)
Striker
- Assassin
- Assassin (Executioner)
- Assassin
- Rogue
- Vampire
- Warlock (Hexblade)
If it was me I’d go Paladin, Paladin (Cavalier), Swordmage, or Paladin (Blackguard)
