running a script before the batch render of a frame

ok I need to figure out a way of making a script run before each rendered frame. I know I can use the pre and post mel commands in the render globals to run a script before the render. But I need to run that script before each frame. any ideas? I have got a solution but it sucks:

create a MEL for loop, run the script command, use the render MEL command.

Only problem with this is that it doesnt give me a good file name because it doesnt pick it up from the render globals.

Anyone got any good ideas?
