OFDM doesn't exist in the digital domain. The furthest you can go in
software is to use the I-Q pairs that represent the modulated (baseband)
data - that is, QPSK, BPSK, QAM etc. If you have a card that makes I-Q
data accessible (and I suspect most wireless cards don't) then you can
demodulate it using general-purpose software such as Matlab or a DSP
library.
