GnuCash can be scripted in Scheme via $GNC_DATA_HOME/custom-user.scm. Since that's read and acted upon at every startup I suggest that you create a user specifically to generate the reports and and create a custom-user.scm for it and put the jobs in its crontab (or use it to create the Scheduled Action scripts if you're on Windows).
