One ambitious idea would be to implement (a subset of) MDX,
the Multi-Dimensional eXpressions language
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms145506.aspx). If you have
any java experience, there is an open source implementation in it so
you don't have to start from scratch: http://mondrian.sourceforge.net.
