Monsters in spreadsheet/database format

Is there a chance someone has the monsters in a spreadsheet or DB file? When I ran at Gen Con, I manually picked a few of the monsters and made index cards with their stats. I'd like to do a mail merge to get all of them into something like that. I'm staring at the .xml files and not finding a way to import them easily into such a thing, but the formatting looks like it should be possible.

Before I beat my head on a wall for a while trying to do this, has anyone already done it? :D

I haven't found anything like that. I think it'd be a great resource, especially for outputting monster data to cards. A set of monster cards for each monster setting could be super awesome.

It is definitely doable, just not entirely straightforward since the monsters are not completely encapsulated. Take the following example:

<p aid:pstyle="MonsterName">Goblin Orkaster   <span aid:cstyle="Tags">Solitary, Small, Magical, Intelligent, Organized</span></p>
<p aid:pstyle="MonsterStats">Acid orb (d10+1 damage ignores armor)   12 HP   0 Armor</p>
<p aid:pstyle="MonsterStats"><span aid:cstyle="Tags">Near, Far</span></p>
<p aid:pstyle="MonsterDescription">Oh lord, who taught them magic? <em>Instinct</em>: To tap power beyond their stature</p>
<ul><li>Unleash a poorly understood spell</li>
<li>Pour forth magical chaos</li>
<li>Use other goblins for shields</li></ul>

The Goblin is missing a "<monster />" wrapper that would make parsing simpler, And, while name, stats, tags, and description are encapsulated, moves are not.

I put all the monsters in the DW pdf into an Excel spreadsheet. I suppose I should slap a CC notice on it and upload it somewhere...

I posted this in the new DW community in Google+ but someone there mentioned this post.

I took my crude Excel skills and built a random monster generator based on the monster creation rules in DW. It is not perfect but it does produce some interesting results. I know it is not exactly what you are looking for but since it is related I thought I would share here as well. Feel free to tweak hack or share.
