The Excel add-in works (I thought) through COM, so I don't
know if what you want is possible.

Excel and Outlook use the same API.  The route I took to figure
Excel's out was to start with Mark Hammond's SpamBayes Outlook
add-in for clues, combined with the VBA help for Excel and plenty
of web searches for the relevant functions.
