         'stop_rules_processing' => 0,
        'rule' => array(
        'actions' => array(
            array(
            'type' => 'salesrule/rule_condition_product_found',
            'attribute' => 'sku',
            'operator' => '==',

    );
          $model = Mage::getModel('salesrule/rule');
          $data = $this->_filterDates($data, array('from_date', 'to_date'));
          $validateResult = $model->validateData(new Varien_Object($data));
           if ($validateResult == true) {
           if (isset($data['simple_action']) && $data['simple_action'] == 'by_percent'
            && isset($data['discount_amount'])) {
        $data['discount_amount'] = min(100, $data['discount_amount']);
        }
        if (isset($data['rule']['conditions'])) {
        $data['conditions'] = $data['rule']['conditions'];
        }
        if (isset($data['rule']['actions'])) {
        $data['actions'] = $data['rule']['actions'];
        }
        unset($data['rule']);
        $model->loadPost($data);
        $model->save();
    }

Here is a script that worked for me. The main idea is to build an array that looks exactly as the $_POST array does when creating a discount rule using the interface.
If that doesn't work for you, try to create the discount rule in the admin panel, and log the data sent through $_POST, then compare it to your data and see the differences.
