A:
You can write a c# application pretty easily to connect to the sp list and export it out yourself.
A quick search on codeplex search comes up with one such program already made for this purpose! Hope this can help you: http://www.codeplex.com/SPListReader http://www.codeplex.com/SPListReader/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=15420

A:
On the SharePoint list click Actions > Open With Access > Right click on the table and choose export to xml.
What version of SharePoint? I just tried this and I don't have an "Open with Access" action. I can export to an Excel workbook, but it links to the SP list and doesn't let you export it.

ad "What version of SharePoint?": Can you edit your original question to clarify what SharePoint version you are using?

Well, it's tagged MOSS. That can only mean SP 2007

Very interesting idea. I never thought of transforming the RSS feed. Thanks!

A:
In the actions menu of the list, select export to spreadsheet. Then open the exported Excel Web Query file and from the File menu, select "Save as" and save it as XML.

You could also use the Lists webservice. http://server/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx

This is the method I use:
http://servername/site/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=Display&List=YOURUNIQUELISTID&XMLDATA=TRUE
Works like a charm.
