Ah ok now I understand than you need to look into the source code of the application of your choice and modify it. I don't think that there is a navigation software with such an api you looking for.

If you are interested on how to read gps data through some api, this could be useful:

PyMaemo/Using Location API

Python bindings for Qt Mobility APIs

Qt Mobility 1.2: Location API

liblocation API documentation
