I'm currently using EventGhost to archieve this. The XBMC2 addon for EG can emulalte CH+/CH- button presses. You can then call EventGhost from the commandline, send a UDP request or use any of the other 1001 methods to communicate with EG.
I've found that EventGhost works really well for any XBMC communication. I use it as an abstraction layer between custom built software and constantly changing XBMC API's.

Nope. You can, as far as I know, only get the 'now playing' file and they are 1.pvr, 2.pvr, 3.pvr etc. However you might be able to take this and compare it against a backend API. Or if you don't have too much channels, you could write a simple file to contain that data, then compare the channel number you're getting against the list.
