its an interesting question and i think that we people always try to write, which we are comfortable with and also easier and from which we can finish it up fast in a short time and we think that it is only to convey the message we use these words and anything is fine. and also there are a few people who pronounce the words differently and then they write it in a different spelling.

definitely i can say "okey" is not the correct word..
okay - I use this word during chat with my dear one and friends.
Ok - I think this is just a short of "Okay" & no difference in meaning or pronunciation.
Finally, my short explanation is okay fro you?

Ok, it an exclamation, an adjective , an adverb and a noun too. While the British form is OK the Americans put it as 'Okay' meaning the same. Okay?

From what I know, the correct word is O.K.
To my knowledge the word originates back in history, to a time of war, when each morning they posted the number of human losses. In that context, OK meant "zero killed"
