It looks like the current implementation uses an XPC service for setting/getting the brightness, contrast, list of displays, and the ability to "flip" the display.

From what I can see, right now only the Manager application and Elgato's CameraHub application seem to be whitelisted to communicate with the XPC service, so I would imagine that there will need to be some method to get other applications authorized for this service

Code:
$ strings DisplayLink\ Manager.app//Contents/MacOS/DisplayLinkXpcService
[...]
DlmXpc::Service: Processing command to return list of displays
DlmXpc::Service: Processing command to %{public}@ display %{public}@
DlmXpc::Service: Processing command to set contrast to %{public}.2f for display %{public}@
DlmXpc::Service: Processing command to set brightness to %{public}.2f for display %{public}@
DlmXpc::Service: Processing command to set flip setting to %{public}@ for display %{public}@
DlmXpc::Service: Notifying clients that contrast of display %{public}@ was changed to %{public}.2f
DlmXpc::Service: Error associated with client: %{public}@
DlmXpc::Service: Notifying clients that brightness of display %{public}@ was changed to %{public}.2f
