is there an expression to add the clone stamp tool?

Is there something like an addCloneStamp() function available to add the clone stamp to a comp?
I have 12 objects that I have tracked in my composition, and I want to use the clone stamp to hide the objects. Currently, I am adding twelve instances of the clone stamp to the composition by hand and writing an expression for each of them to handle the offset that I want and all that.
I would rather just track the objects and write one script that will automate the whole process, but I can't figure out how to programmatically add the clone stamp.
On another note, where can I find documentation on the functions, objects, etc. for after effects expressions?

Expressions can't call application windows and panels and their functions and even JSX scripts are limited to things like the project window, compositions and the render queue. You have to do your stuff manually, as tedious as it may be. Your guide for expressions are the help files, websites like AEnhancers.com and whatever generic resources on JavaScript you can find.
