So you can't even communicate with the remote Solr process by HTTP? Because if you can, SolrJ would work.
Otherwise, you're stuck with creating a bunch of Solr-style XML documents, they have a simple format. See the example/exampleDocs directory in the standard distribution. You'll have to parse the separate document types and put your required data into the Solr XML format... But I really don't understand why you need to. A Solr installation that you can't get to via http is pretty useless, although I suppose there can be security setups that preclude this. Assuming you can get there via http, consider a SolrJ program combined with Tika to parse the docs you have in all these formats and send them to Solr via SolrJ...
