No, there's no way to set page transitions programmatically, you can only do 
this through the UI.

The transition styles ste in the PDF are not accessible to us, Apple's PDFKit 
does not support them and does not even report them. In fact one of the reasons 
the Skim transitions were introduced is precisely as an alternative for the 
missing PDFKit support. There's also no relation whatsoever between the 
possible PDF and Skim transitions.

The transition information is saved in an extended attribute, just like the 
notes (the resource fork is also saved in an EA, but a different one).
