I had thought that an API into the backend would be a good idea, something standard like
WSDL & SOAP would probably be the way to go.
Thoughts?

It seems to me that the issue could be fixed with a JSON or SOAP API built
into the portal
website.
That would allow end-users to update information on the portal using
scripts or whatever mechanism they liked. Also because the API is hooked
into the portal's backend, there's no need to have a separate mechanism or
script to sync everything up between the DNS server, portal, and the API,
like is required with the email bot.
Also, because the API wouldn't need to be stateful, standard load balancing
could allow for backup servers.
Just an idea,
