Manage your references with any tool you like, save the .bib file and then 
insert a citation in LyX via Insert->Citation.

I think they are with cygwin. I am able to do this in a terminal window:

$ mkfifo /tmp/mynamedpipe
$ echo "I am here!" > /tmp/mynamedpipe

and then, in another terminal:

$ cat /tmp/mynamedpipe
I am here!

So, with a cygwin compiled LyX the lyxpipe should simply work.

I was afraid of that.  Any great ideas for reference management with Lyx 
on windows?

No. The pipe does not work at all on windows, because named pipes are not
available on this OS.

No. The pipe does not work at all on windows, because named pipes are not
