Is there a way to upload to Box.net through automator?

I would like to upload a file to Box.net through either automator or applescript and have that function (action) return the shared URL for use later in the script. Is there an easy way to do that?
I'm comfortable with modifying scripts in python and applescript, but when it comes to programming something like this - it's hard to come up with the steps that I need. Looking at the API docs, curl is used as an example - but I can't figure out to get that to work within an automator action or applescript droplet.

Best answer: Looks like the community has a Box python module. I'd start there. The provided example even shows how to upload a file.
