Ledger has no capacity for generated transactions like this.  You can, however, 
at least use math:

def rate = 8.5

2010-08-14 Example
  Liabilities:Student Loan         ($8000.00 * ((rate/365) * 30)))
  Assets:Wherever

You could repeat entries like this for each month that you carry the loan.

Note that this syntax is for 3.0.
