There is already an online converter:

<http://www.isbn.org/converterpub.asp>

They offer the service to convert large stacks.

"Need a large list of ISBNs converted? Enquire about obtaining your 
converted list."

To go from 13 to 10 is easy -- the isbn-10 is the last 10 digits of thte 
isbn-13. Going the other direction, I haven't figured out yet (not that 
I've tried hard).
