It isn't trivial or easy. You need to write a script that connects to the site faking a browser connection with cURL or the snoopy.class. After logging in with the script you have to move to the contact page and parse your way through the html to get all the contacts or if they have an export feature, execute that link and download the data the parse it locally.
