The "Stuffit Commands" osax can be scripted to zip files:
Zip : Zip one or more files into a new archive
Zip a list of alias -- list of files/folders/disks to be zipped
[into file specification] -- full pathname of the archive to create
[deleting originals boolean] -- if true, the original files will be
deleted after successfully zipped
[compression level small integer] -- how much compression (0-9,
default is 6)
[resolving aliases boolean] -- if true (the default), all aliases
will be resolved before stuffing
[macbinary encode boolean] -- MacBinary encode the files as they are
added (if this parameter is NOT specified, we do 3smart2 encoding)
Result : file specification -- Where the new archive got placed
