Sure: 1) use wget's mirror option, and link the torrent from a central page 2) use the find command to find new files in the directory 3) checksum the file & look for it in a 'checksums.log' file. If it doesn't exist, add it, then proceed to download it.
Isn't it easier to just turn on ssh, then login to initiate the torrent download in a CLI BT client?
