How Do I Use AppleScript to Create a Project on the Fly

I want to use Projects as a mechanism for tagging emails and some
tasks. However, the Project Center is overkill for what I want to do. I
want to avoid the New Project wizard and create Projects on the fly
with AppleScript.

Does anyone know how to do this programmatically with a script?

I tried this:

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"

set theName to "My Test Project"
set newProject to make new project with properties {name:theName}

end tell

This creates a project, but it makes Entourage very stable. My guess is
that I am not including enough property parameters (e.g., ID). Also, I
need to be able to display a dialog box to the user to ask for the name
of the project he or she wants to create.
