I believe you'd have to use the SharePoint Object Model (C#/VB.NET code) to modify the status of a workflow associated with a Page (which is basically a List Item (SPListItem) in a SharePoint List (SPList).
I would advise against changing the List Item status column metadata directly as this is done by the Workflow as it progresses through its states, and therefore you really do need to trigger the workflow to make it change the status so it stays in sync.

The pages are all using the out of the box publishing workflows if that affects the solution?
