This won't be a lot of help, but I know there are both commercial and
shareware programs out there that will run specified applications and
inject the needed keystrokes at some future unattended time.  I just can't
recall any of their names right now.  Also, many of the high end backup
packages now also include a timer function.  

At least you know a deeper search is worthwhile.
