I do not believe you can have a stand-alone program interact with Inventor files at all. I know you can make a program access and edit iproperties but you need either Inventor or Inventor Viewer installed on the computer. In short I'm 99% sure you need Inventor or the Viewer to access any APIs.

I know you can sell add-ins through the Inventor website and you should be able to find some licensing info there.
