Hi Tim,
The Final Cut project file format is not documented. Exporting to XML is the way to get a readable representation of what's in the project.
You can send FCP an Apple Event that will return the XML data, if you want to avoid having the user manually export XML. But FCP must be running for this to work.
More info is here:
