iControl is designed to manage the control plane (configuration). The Log interface is used to configure and monitor the logging on the system and their isn't a way from iControl to do so. The only way I can think of to add an entry to the log file programmatically would be to write an iRule (which exists on the data plane) that looks for a given URL and then issues a log statement. Kind of a hassle though to do it.
