What you want is Autodia, which makes UML diagams from (at least) class files.l

The Dia site lists a number of tools that manipulate the save format. 
Additionally, the tarball contains the DTD, though that is of little

single document explaining the Dia save format, but it's fairly
straight-forward (optionally compressed) XML.
