I spent a night couple of months ago hacking on this:
https://github.com/adsharma/py-perf-parser

It needs to be combined with code that can symbolize raw IP addresses to 
make it more useful (pydevtools, pyelftools or parts of perf exported as 
a library)

Thought I'd post it here, so folks interested in transforming perf.data 
into something else can hack on it.
