I might just rewrite irsend to do what I want, but it's time consuming.
Don't be too proud to cheat, it's only software
Why don't you work with a "variable" config file? Simply write the argument into the config file before calling irsend the usual way.
Then do /etc/init.d/lircd reload
Now issue your command using IRSEND

Depends a bit on performance/timing needs, if you tell us a bit more we might help better.
