The object type is "scrollbar", and it comes in three styles:

   scrollbar
   scale
   progress

This may seem a little odd, but if you think about it all three of those 
have very parallel property needs, so maybe it's not crazy. :)

So use this instead:

   set the thumbposition of scrollbar "x" to 22

...or with abbreviations:

   set the thumbPos of sb "x" to 22
