I don't know anything about RANCID, but I recently used expect and a
shell-script wrapper to do the backups on 3 Cisco routers. I just
setup a TFTP server on our backup machine and punched the correct
holes in the firewall. There's a command you can run on the router
itself to send the config off to a remote system.
Additionally, the 'backup' is simply the same output you get when you
run a show run command from the router's enable mode.
