So you mean in your own script that you're making, not typing in coordinates in the regular Loft command, right?
I'm not sure if that's possible currently - one thing you can try though is if you run .update() on the Loft factory, the curve orientation input (input index 1 on the loft factory) should get filled in with a default orientation list. It should then be possible to modify that list, you can get it I think by factory.getInput(1).getValue(); that will be a list object, each item in the list is a CurveOrientation object which has 2 properties: flipped and seam which can be modified.
The seam point though is a normalized parameter value, with 0.0 meaning the start of the original curve and 1.0 meaning the end of the curve, and 0.5 meaning the middle of the curve's parameter space, not necessarily the middle of the arc length distance of the curve.
