If speed is not an issue, use drupal_execute(). You're on the safe side with it, you don't need to worry about hook_nodeapi() / hook_form_alter() implementations of the moduls in use.

Otherwise, I settled for:

$node = new stdClass();
node_object_prepare($node);
// Add stuff.
$node->title = 'my title';
node_save($node);

On that note, I urge all module developers to not rely on form submission in their hook_nodeapi() implementations. Your module's node api implementation shouldn't break when a node is being created without using the way through the form api.
