You're just using the library wrong. The only interface you should use is 'define-bibtex-cite'. The ~cite and citet functions that are generated create the 'bib' structure for entries in the BibTex database as you use them. They are then cached in bibdb-bibs (because autobib requires them to be eq on different uses.) The other functions/structures are just documented in case someone wants to process BibTex files for some purpose other than using them in Scribble documents. At the time I wrote this, define-cite had no options. I've updated the define-bibtex-cite to support given options to define-cite. This should allow you to use the #:style option with define-bibtex-cite.
