xlrd: Library for developers to extract data from Microsoft Excel
(tm).

It is for *reading* Excel files, not writing them. To get data
into Excel use the csv module and create the file using the
default 'excel-csv' format. Then load the file using Excel.

Creating an Excel file directly in Python is possible, but I
think it will require use of the Pywin32 extensions.
