Though there's a slim chance it might be possible to use curl (PHP on your
server may or may not have support for it) to post data to the site admin
interface in order it's not really feasible (and I wouldn't bet that it will
work).  Any other solution will require scripts running with root user
privileges.  I'm not aware of a script that does what you need.  I could
certainly write such scripts for you, but your server admin would need to
setup the scripts to run via cron with root user privileges.  Is your server
admin that trusting?
