This is not a bug, it's a feature. When an item's stock is depleted, and you replace the stock, you have to set the stock level, and specify that the item is once again in stock.

You can bypass this by changing the settings in Admin, at System > Configuration > Catalog > Inventory. See both Stock Options and Product Stock Options in this menu.

By the way, you will find dedicated Magento help over at https://magento.stackexchange.com/

EDIT

It depends how you are updating the stock qty? The stock qty field is product[stock_data][qty], and the stock status field is product[stock_data][is_in_stock]. If you are automating an update to qty, you can add an update for stock status (= 1).
