After 30 minutes of struggling with mplayer's pathetic documentation, I finally figured out the secret recipe to convert a file from mp4 (or, probably, any other format mpalyer can grok such as flv, etc) in to mp3 format:
mencoder -of rawaudio file.mp4 -o file.mp3 -oac mp3lame -ovc copy
It would have been nice if mplayer's documentation made this clearer (when I think of "raw audio", I think of a headerless PCM stream of audio, which is a pain to deal with)
