You can set the mime type to
application/vnd.ms-excel
with header()
or 
just name the file with a .xls extension and use
application/octet-stream

So that you don't have to had the end-user import the csv file, output
your data in a html table that would mimic the spreadsheet.
Might also help to use table border=1, else the cell lines won't be visible.

This isn't a true Excel file, however. I believe there are other tools
for that purpose.
