Mac OS X New Users From Command Line

I need to add a new user via the command line in single-user mode. I reinstalled OS X earlier, and for some reason, it didn't create my user account properly. Now I can't log in. So I'm wondering how exactly I can go about creating a new user account without reinstalling everything.

I tried this, but it didn't work: http://osxdaily.com/2007/10/29/how-to-add-a-user-from-the-os-x-command-line-works-with-leopard/

Thanks in advance.

Seems like if it didn't create your user account correctly you probably need to reinstall again in case other things didn't get set up correctly.
