Imps have La -, which means that they are not suitable as PCs.

Now if you are a DM and you want to do it as a NPC, well... Don't. The only thing the samurais have is their mass staredown. You'll be better off with a crusader.

What's the closest thing to an imp that's playable as a character, then?

You could always stat up the imp as a playable race, just remove or weaken it's over powered abilities(I can only think of fast healing[maybe] and it's summon ability)

You can pick one up with improved familiar. A pseudodragon is ECL5. I would speculate that an imp is similarly ECL 5. It's certainly no more powerful than a pixie.

The imp was given an ECL of 7 in savage species, though I am not sure what you can do with it that would make it seem samurai'ish.
