Actually, via addon packages, COM support is very good in R. In fact there
are two different roughly comparable packages that provide COM support
(both client and server). I have used the client package of both and they both
seem to work well.
1. rcom at:

which also has its own mailing list:

and
2. various omegahat packages at:
