Actually, in Word (2007, I think 2003 too) you have the 'Save As' option of 'html, filtered' or something like that, it'll remove most of the 'Word' html and leaves you with a pretty clean code. Mainly stores the font used and some other stuff, but it's not as bad as with just saving to html (filesize difference is 50% or so).
I used this to go from an rtf>html>lrf yesterday, using a regex editor in the html phase to implement <h1> tags in HTML to make chapter detection easier (you probably could do this in rtf-code too, but I don't know the tags and Calibre likes html better according to it's FAQ).
