The common and preferred way to have your Jazz user management done by integrating with a LDAP server.
If you are using a LDAP server, you should use the LDAP API to update your user info.
As Paul says, there is no public Jazz API for maintaining users om a Tomcat user registry or a LDAP server.

Passwords are not really managed directly by these apps.   They are using the JEE container to drive authentication. Authentication is done with some type of user registry... It really depends on the registry the JEE container (tomcat, WAS, ...) is configured with.  LDAP is one option, File is another ....  ... as @bbekker noted above... it is the registry's mgt. api you need.

Unfortunately, I don't believe there is a public API to change user passwords.  Here are the public APIs for the CLM applications:

RQM:

RQM Reportable API
OSLC QM V2 API

RTC:

RTC Reportable API
OSLC CM V2 API

RRC:

RRC Reportable API
OSLC RM V2 API
