So if the UK left the EU, what would happen to UKIP, one of there main policy planks being gone? Would they start to dwindle?

They would become the angry English man's party.

A vote to exit would still require Parliaments approval, right?
Techincally, it is possible for Parliament to defy the will of the people, but it would be political suicide for a government to do so. 
Will the votes take forever to count like most British elections?
Most likely. Results are expected to be declared later than usual general elections, as voter turnout will most likely be very high.
