The lldb command line tool doesn't have a batch mode.  Feel free to file a bug 
on this (or just add it yourself...)  We haven't gotten around to this yet 
because most of the sort of thing you would do with more complex gdb scripts, 
we envisioned doing in Python instead.

What you want to do would be quite easy in Python.  For instance, 
examples/python/disass.py has a quick example of launching a process & stopping 
at a breakpoint.  That does pretty much what you want, you just want to catch 
any stop state bug eStateExited, enumerate the threads - there's an iterator 
for that in the process, so you can just do:

    for t in process:

and then get the backtrace for the thread.  There's a routine in 
test/lldbutils.py (print_stacktrace) that does a fairly fancy job of this, and 
of course you can always get the command interpreter from the debugger object 
and call HandleCommand to run an lldb command-line command...  The data for the 
command comes back in the result object so you can print it to stdout, or some 
log file or whatever you want to do with it.

lldb's Python API's do have documentation that you can access in Python, or 
just look at the files in include/lldb/API, the C++ -> Python translation is 
pretty straight-forward.

The page:

http://lldb.llvm.org/python-reference.html

has some info on how to load the lldb module into stand-alone Python, which is 
probably what you want to do.

Hope this helps.
