You search for AddConnection() method of
org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings interface.

For a simple python example see:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python/add-
system-connection.py

More complex example can be found here:
http://markmail.org/message/2xfwvjqjovu4fk2j

For specification of settings parameters
see:http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/settings-spec-08.html

Wow, I didn't know about this one, thought that gconf was the only was to edit the connection. When was this added?
