but when i "store script" is saves it only as a compiled script. i've
read the dictionary entry for "store script" in Scripting Additions but
there don't seem to be any options to store the script as a stay-open app
like you can from the menu interface.
what am i missing?

Yes. If they are applets you just run and quit them, like any other app.

time shouldn't be too much of a problem - most of the time these applets
will be waiting for events.
memory may be an issue since it's not an infinite resource. to that end,
if these script applets used a parent property to inherit common
functions do they require less memory?
