Why not try accessing cube data in Delphi 2005 via a Web Service, using
the XML for Analysis (XMLA) standard? XMLA is the standard interface to
Analysis Services 2005, but you can use the SDK to provide XMLA access
to Analysis Services 2000 as well:

XML for Analysis 1.1 SDK

This SDK is a middle tier that allows a client complying with the XML
for Analysis (XMLA) version 1.1 specification to communicate with an
Analysis Services 2000 server.

Overview

The Microsoft? XML for Analysis 1.1 SDK contains the Microsoft? XML for
Analysis provider and sample client applications. The Microsoft? XML for
Analysis provider supports client access to analytical data sources
(OLAP and data mining) residing on the Web. This provider implements the
XML for Analysis Specification, version 1.1, which provides for open
data access to analytical data sources residing over the Web, without
the need to deploy a client component that exposes COM interfaces.
Microsoft Analysis Services 2000 server can be accessed with the
provided download, from a web client, without any COM components on the
client. For more information, read the XML for Analysis specification,
version 1.1, available at http://www.xmla.org.

Support for the XML for Analysis 1.1 SDK is available via the following
newsgroup: microsoft.public.data.xmlanalysis.

You could import the Pivot Table OLE control.  I tried this and it works
pretty good.  You can also run MDX queries against the database using the
ADO driver... this is more limited as it's not really an active cube viewer,
but more of a results viewer (standard grid).

We've been building a large scale implementation of MSAS using Delphi 7 as
the backend processor, but not for GUI purposes.  There are a lot of tools
out there, maybe you can check those out?
