this would make it possible to add new albums uploaded automatically from ie. my iphone to X3
is this available?

There is perhaps a better way to do this. X3 invalidates cache whenever the the mtime (modified time) on the main /content/ dir is updated. This is how cache invalidation is handled from the X3 control panel, when something changes. There is also a backup mechanism, to update the time or writing into a file config/touch.txt. As soon as either /content/ or /config/touch.txt is updated, visits to your X3 website will cause new pages to get created also.

So if you have some CRON task, you could just update either /content/ or /config/touch.txt whenever required. From command-line, that would be a simple "touch $path" command.

You could also delete the page cache, but this seems is more complicated and serves the same purpose.
