OK, so I did my homework.  (I had done it previously, too, but I ran
(apropos "today") which wasn't exactly what was needed;).)  Here's the
code:

(org-schedule nil (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d" (current-time)))

Adding a repeater seems to require something along the lines of

(save-excursion
  (search-forward ">")
  (backward-char)
  (insert (concat
    " .+"
    (read-string "Minimum interval: ")
    "/"
    (read-string "Maximum interval: "))))

(I realize that this is *very* crude implementation, but remember that
it's a quick-and-dirty hack to be used once every few days at most, so
coding it in an elegant way would be a bit of waste of time...)
