Chuck Swiger outlined the right approach. You'll have an easier time of things if you convert the data into DNS format before loading it into the name server. Custom resource records are probably going to lead you in the wrong direction. If you really need to do something that BIND's standard facilities don't do, you'll have to write a custom back-end, or use some other more scriptable DNS software such as PowerDNS.
