Best not to directly modify the database, there are several tools that  
will let you interact with the database cleanly outside of the web  
interface including:

The REST interface - If using Perl consider the RT::Client::REST  
library - http://search.cpan.org/~dams/RT-Client-REST-0.36/lib/RT/Client/REST.pm
The RT Tool - http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/UseRtTool
The RT CLI libraries (if you were using Perl) - http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/CliBasics

Hope that helps.
