The new "Proof reading" in OOo uses a new API that provides the whole document in so called "flat paragraphs". It works on Writer documents only but perhaps is exactly the API you might need for your traversing. This API will give you the whole text of the document, including tables, text frames, footnotes etc. separated in paragraphs. You still need to parse this text by yourself to create the word breaks - but I think you can use the break iterator or any other code that is able to do that.
