I'm no expert on this, but I have a feeling you may have better luck in Flash for this purpose.
Or maybe find a generic brightness setting that's good for all the images and just to a batch process on them and re-upload. Not an idea solutions, but I don't think any Javascript (that I know of anyway) will be able to manipulate pixels in an existing image.
