Check the docs for the InsertMedia() function.

For example, to add a new track and put a MIDI file on it using LUA you would type the following:

reaper.InsertMedia("path_to_file", 1)
Gah! How did I miss that? I kept searching for reasonable search terms on the REAPER API functions page and somehow didn't run across this. Thanks!
