Make your application scriptable. If it's a one-off thing, methods in an application category exposed as an application property is the easiest way to go.

That's more a question for another list, but the "perform mail action with messages" handler is passed a list of the messages; from there you can easily get the subject.

I imagine they're as synchronous as any other rule action. But not all AppleScript commands are synchronous (most are, but some like "check for new mail" are not).
