I always stick with PHP for web apps, but I am in a similar situation, I
have to write a script that generates statistics and item reports from a
database... The client wanted them in Excel format... I could have done
CSV, but for the sake of aesthetics, I decided to go with a native Excel
export... The best way of doing it is writing it in Perl with the
SpreadSheet::WriteExcel module.

Take a look at it...  I was quite impressed.
