Maybe a bit late but you can use the project Client-Side SharePoint Powershell http://sharepointpowershell.codeplex.com/ as a PowerShell API to SharePoint Online. The features still need to grow, but you can extend it yourself pretty easy and otherwise just request some features.

I haven't read it all through, but it seems like it is possible to manage SharePoint Online with PowerShell.
