I was able to do it this way.
Reading:
var moduleDict = CFPreferencesCopyAppValue("moduleDict",
"com.apple.screensaver") as NSDictionary
var saverName = moduleDict["moduleName"] as String!
Writing:
var moduleDict = CFPreferencesCopyAppValue("moduleDict",
"com.apple.screensaver") as NSDictionary
var mutable = moduleDict.mutableCopy() as NSMutableDictionary
mutable["moduleName"] = "MyScreenSaver"
mutable["path"] = mySaverPath
CFPreferencesSetValue("moduleDict", mutable as CFPropertyList,
"com.apple.screensaver", kCFPreferencesCurrentUser,
kCFPreferencesCurrentHost)
CFPreferencesAppSynchronize("com.apple.screensaver")
