Depending on the type of score, you may wish to try Kirill Sidorov's
sib2ly converter. If you can't find it let me know and I'll send you a
copy.

sib2ly uses a custom export plugin to dump te contents of the score to a
file, and an external postprocessing program written in ruby to produce
the lilypond source.
