All that places like metalab seem to do where it takes the files you upload 
and
moves them into a different downloadable directory after checking that you
included an lsm and aren't attempting to use it as a warez dump etc, is to 
have
a cronjob which looks regularly into the upload dir and script something based
on whats floating around in there. Persumably this option is out ?
