not exactly...

POI stands for Poor Obfuscation Implementation and is what the
developers think of MShits attempt to hide the content of their office
programs in a one-file FAT-filesystem like structure.

The POI projects wants to deliver api's for all office-formats.

The actual Excel-api is called: HSSF (Horrible SpreadSheet Format)

names tell a story every now and then ;-)
