Without RLink, which is part of version 9 and is not available in version 8, the easiest way is probably to install R and export the data in a format that Mathematica can read. This question should help you export the data from R.

    $\begingroup$ I know that you asked for a solution without R, but I truly believe that the least effort solution is to install R and export in an alternate format. $\endgroup$ – Szabolcs Mar 22 '13 at 15:14
