Actually, I'd like more information than a progress bar would give. I'd like
to display an event log.

I was wondering if there was any way to have an applet display a real-time
event log that is updated as each file is transferred. I'm talking about he
same kind of event log that I'd get from the Script Editor. It should be
updated in real-time as each file is uploaded.

Do you mind if the log is displayed in Console? If not, then just write your messages to some file that ends with ".log" and open it in Console. It will update onscreen when you make changes to the file. Or you could just write the messages to /dev/console which Console already shows you. To do that:

set msg to quoted form of "File uploaded."
do shell script "echo " & msg & " >> /dev/console"
