If no one else is going to help - try this for a start: 

#include <Array.au3>

Local $file = FileOpen("StudentTime.xml", 0)

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

$XML = FileRead($file)

$array = StringRegExp($XML, '(?i)(?-s)<Student Name="(.*?)"(?s).*?(?s)TotalStudyTime="(\d+)', 3)

_ArrayDisplay($array, 1)

FileClose($file)

of course you'll have to put the directory path to your file or use _INetGetSource to grab the data - now you've got the data you can try out the various options for keeping it Excel etc.

What do you mean by "download"? If you browsed the UDF then you already did a download.

Most of the time you find a UDF on the first post of a thread. In this case >here.
