How can I script Adobe Reader updates using vbScript, PowerShell or C#?

I would like to script Adobe Reader updates using vbScript, PowerShell or C#, are there any Adobe API calls I use to do this.  There are several different version that I support and auto update is not an option. I do updates at a specific time of the month. I would like to write a script that would download and install the update for the currently installed version of Adobe Reader (32 or 64 bit) for the version of the OS (32 or 64bit). I can detect the OS version and the Adobe version.  I can download updates but I do not want to hard code anything

I do not believe that ARM has a publically exposed API.

Sabian is correct.

Most admins download the updates from the ftp site and push via AIP, GPO, SCCM, or some other method whenever it makes sense for them.

What is the ftp site? We support over 40+ different companies of all size. A few has SCCM and managing that many GPOs is not something I would like to do. I have written a solution for all the other apps. Adobe Reader, Flash Player and ShockWave are the last ones to do.
