I'd like to programmatically unpair a previously paired Bluetooth device on OS X. I've tried to use the SCPreferencesCreate to get a reference to the SCPreferencesRef and tried a bunch of things including removing the paired device (I still see the device showing up under BRPairedDevices), removed the keys for PairedDevices and BRPairedDevices that show up in com.apple.Bluetooth.plist etc. Still no dice. The documentation seems to be woefully inadequate and the forums did not contain useful information.

Is it possible to programmatically unpair a device that has previously been paired with OS X? If so, where should I look?

FWIW, I have tried this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14964561/is-it-possible-to-unpair-a-bluetooth-device-in-cocoa-objc and executed the compiled code as admin. Still no dice.
