No I have tried to manually download the package for openoffice, which
barfed since dependencies where not present.
pkg_add -r didn't work since there was no package where it should have
been on the site to download.
I have tried to build from source as well and that fails since the
source can not be found. (ports tree updated)
How do I install it? I need it pretty bad right now.
It was't this hard last time I tried.

I installed mine from ports some time ago and didn't have any
difficulties. It took ages to compile however - obviously - so if you
need it right now this might not be an option.
A quick search in ftp's Latest directory does not reveal an openoffice
package, but there is one in the All directory:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/openoffice.org-2.3.1_1.tbz
You could try the following, as root (assuming tcsh):
setenv PACKAGESITE
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/
pkg_add -r openoffice.org-2.3.1_1
(there are also a 2.4 and a 3.0 version there, have a look at the ftp)
