Is there any existing Python library that can validate data in Excel format? Or what kind of keyword should I use to search such an open source project? Thanks.

I`m not sure what are you looking for, but there are three libraries that, in combination, can read and write excel files:
xlrd
xlwt
xlutils
They read and save binary excel archives both in windows and linux. There are functions for formatting data and styles.
If you want to check if some data column is in a given format you can do it with these libs (basically with xlrd).
