Can QDNS be used to run a DNS-based blacklist?

I'd be really grateful if someone could tell me if this can be done with
AppleScript and QDNS Pro 2.1:

I am working on setting up a DNS-based spam blacklist (similar to MAPS RBL)
which will list 'Spam-in-progress' (termed 'SIP'). Once properly working
this blacklist will then be hosted by the MAPS team, but for now I am
trying to develop it and will be hosting it here and as I'm Mac-based and
use QDNS for our domain servers I want to use QuickDNS Pro for this project.

The domain file will consist of many hundreds of entries all like this:

22.218.115.193.sip.uxn.com A 127.0.0.5
215.2.125.64.sip.uxn.com A 127.0.0.5
54.34.23.193.sip.uxn.com A 127.0.0.5
11.231.233.202.sip.uxn.com A 127.0.0.5

So my question is, can I add these entries individually to a QDNS domain
(sip.uxn.com) via AppleScript? And if so, can I also then delete any one of
these entries via AppleScript? (I need to run everything from a FileMaker
database, and every IP listed must only remain in the blacklist for 24
hours. So FileMaker has to both add records and later delete them from
QDNS).

If this can be done via Applescript, I'd be very grateful if someone could
tell me the correct syntax to add and delete a record to a QDNS domain.

Thanks,

Steve Linford
