This is probably more low-level than what you want, but you could (in theory at least), write a XSLT script to transform your XML file into Dia XML, then use something like XT: http://www.blnz.com/xt/index.html or Xalan: http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/ to do the translation. Depending on how elaborate your XSLT was, you might have to do some considerable rearranging in Dia afterwords.
