Question Populating Series/Volume programmatically

I have written a program to convert 300 books (5 series containing between 20 and 100 volumes). I am still honing the software, making tweaks etc, which means that if I were to use Calibre's wonderful feature (which does work by the way) I would have to manually specify the Series/Volume on loading.

Is there a way to access the Calibre database programmatically, and add books + Calibre metadata?
