IIRC, I used 'transmission-remote -a' to add a torrent, and 'transmission-remote -l' to list the current torrents. I believe the daemon has a web ui built in, but you may have to configure it. I haven't used it for years, but the cli was kinda clunky so I wrapped it in scripts to add, list, and remove torrents. Apparently I don't have those any more, though.
