The 'foreign' package in R (which is part of the default R installation) has the ability to read MTP format files. Since R is open source, you can review the source code for the function "read.mtp()" in the package's code. A direct link to the package source code download is here: http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.html#foreign You can then download the tar file containing the code, which is 'foreign_0.6-6.tar.gz'. Keep in mind that R and the foreign package are released under the GPL (http://www.r-project.org/COPYING), so you would need to abide by the GPL license requirements if you use the code in a derivative work.
