Is there a way, within python code, to scale load by a certain amount rather than to set a new value? In other words I don't want to set the scaled load to a certain value, I'd like to instead change it by a certain value.

Yep, you can use `scal`

check the API, you can set the incremental value, rather than a new total in the function scale_2

Here is how you can use scal with Python to to an incremental scale instead of setting to a specific level.

psspy.scal(
         sid=1,         # only scale subsystem id 1
         status1=3,     # specify incremental power
         status3=5,     # incremental Q load
         scalval1=5,    # increment by 5 MW
         scalval7=5)    # increment by 5 MVAr

1.216 of the API manual has the full run down of options for scal
