Dear Vikas Singh,

This is no direct answer directing to a specific software, but just my 
personal experience:

I saw such automated fitting procedures in some bundle programs (If I remember 
right, e.g. in Surfer and ArcGIS) done some kind of geostatistics and I did 
some programming of my own trying least squares and Maximum Likelihood. 

However my personal experience was that automated fitting of the variogram 
might be good for fine tuning a manual solution or for a first suggestion, 
which afterwards has to be checked manually, but was simply to unreliable for 
a pure automated application without user interaction.


 
My suggestion for a routine application kriging the same kind of data every 
day would be to do some manual evaluation of the variograms of past datasets 
until one has an idea what kinds of variograms show up, whether or not there 
is significant variation between the variograms at different times, and what 
is the character and range of variation. 

Than one could either rely on Bayesian Kriging using the inferred possible 
range of parameters and the typical variogram shape  as a prior or check the 
reliability of the various automated fitting procedures (which hopefully the 
others in the list will supply)  against that old datasets. 

Best regards,
Gerald
