Good point Alan. The OP can use Python to drive applescript in a similar way to Windows users driving COM. The MacPython package includes functions to interface to applescript. There are examples of doing this in the book MacOS Hacks by O'Reilly (albeit from Perl, but the Python interface is, I believe, very similar) So that might be an alternative route.
