I didn't search the web to find out whether there is API avilable. However here is a link for pretty good COM bridge which will enable you to access Microsoft COMs. I guess once you have access to COM you can manupulate and get your word doc done.

May be there is a easy way, but if you fail to find it, you can use this method as a back up I guess

You can create doc files using POI....there are other API in POI that give you the posibility to create a word document...
