Mita, A while back (I mean at least six years ago) I wrote some code to take citations downloaded from an index provider, reformat them into bepress spreadsheet format, and bulk upload them. The purpose of the project was to identify published articles by University of California faculty, email them that we had citations of their work in our system, and wouldn't they like to upload their copy of their article into the repository? I don't have the numbers on that project, but I recall that it did boost submissions. Unfortunately, I think the code, which was likely crappy anyway, has long since moldered to dust on a server somewhere that I no longer have access to, but I can put you in touch with someone at UC who might be doing something like this. I'll email you off-list.
