You don't need a Firefox API to do this. Just send the shell command:
"mozilla-firefox www.google.com" and if firefox is already open, it
will open the page without opening a new instance. I tested here, try
on your command line with firefox already open. If you want it to open
a new instance, there is probably a command line switch for this.
