I'm trying to write an application that needs to run in the background, intercept certain keyboard events from the user regardless of the currently active application, does some processing of the keyboard event, and spits back an output to the current application as if it came straight from the user. Any hints on this would be greatly appreciated.

So, what you basically want to write then is a keylogger, right? Try having a look at the events section on the cocoa site, that should get you further.
