I would like to draw the activity usage profile for any group of activities and for any project without the help of the P6.

The parser has no relation with what we speak about.

You have two options:

1) Create a layout in P6 using activity spread or resource spread then use copy and paste function to excel

2) Run these timespread tables in P6 Report with output to .csv then open in excel.

Alternative options is for programmer and software developer:

Create a program that automate these timespread in excel using the open database table of P6.
