I have not used it, but if you are at all comfortable with Perl, you
might want to look at the Spreadsheet::Read module:

  http://search.cpan.org/~HMBRAND/Spreadsheet-Read/Read.pm

There is a wiki article here:

http://howto.wikia.com/wiki/Howto_read_OpenOffice_OpenDocument_spreadsheets_in_Perl

that provides an overview of Perl options to read ODS files.
