xtpmg (Blackburn and Frank) with option -mg- gives you an ECM version (well, it reports the implied long-run results as well as the short-run results; an option to see the results country by country is also given). ARDL means autoregressive distributed lag, which is a levels regression with lagged dependent variable and contemporaneous and lagged covariates. This is mathematically equivalent to an ECM, which has the first difference of y as dependent variable and then adds lagged levels of y and x as well as contemporaneous and lagged differences of x (and lagged ones of y, too) as covariates. Hendry (1995) 'Dynamic Econometrics' has a discussion for a single time series how ARDL is the encompassing specification for a lot of dynamic models, including ECM. In terms of interpretation of coefficients you will get the same long-run results, although they're constructed differently. Furthermore, an ECM approach allows you to impose a long-run relationship (y-beta*x) as 'ecm' variable in order to focus on short-run dynamics and the speed of convergence/error correction mechanism. If you create lags manually (gen lx=l.x etc.) you can also use my xtmg command. Both xtpmg and xtmg commands can be found using -findit- in Stata.
