We do some dynamic SWF generation via mod_perl; there are some actionscript bytecode compilers under perl There's also a decent Python and Erlang library out there too. For anything dynamic, its pretty simple- you can merge swfs, do simple actions / var publishers as wrappers which load desgined flash files, etc. not very hard!
