I recently wrote a piece of software for a friend working on a project, you can find it on github here. The following is from the README.md:
zipcode-distance-excel
This is a command line utility to automatically calculate the distance between two zipcodes and then put the results in an excel (.xlsx) file. It works for US postal codes only.
It was developed to help a colleague and is very application-specific.
Prerequisites
