I'd never seen such a tool.
But it is not impossible in other way.
(1) Terminal
Connect to Mac OS X machine using a kind of telnet or terminal
application.
Send AppleScript text to Mac with "osascript" command.
(2) CGI or XML-RPC call
If you can make cgi application or XML-RPC listener application, you
can call them from Windows machine.
But....I recommend you to use remote desktop application such as
"vnc" if you want to avoid the efforts.
Once, I and my friend made an iTunes control script via iChat by
natural language (in Japanese).
It may be useful for Japanese language users.

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but does anybody offer a

that can send Apple Events to a Mac? Specifically, I'd love to be
able to
fire up iTunes on my Mac from my Windows laptop.
(I wonder if iTunes running on Windows uses Apple Events to
communicate with
iTunes/Mac to receive and display remote libraries. Probably not.)
As you think....the answer is "No". It should be a kind of file
sharing or simple message transfering service. Not a remote procedure
call.
