Sieve is specifically designed for use in a black box mail server like 
Cyrus IMAPd. From the Abstract section of RFC 3028 (Sieve: A Mail 
Filtering Language):

    [...]
    It is suitable for running on a mail server where users may
    not be allowed to execute arbitrary programs, such as on black box
    Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) servers, as it has no
    variables, loops, or ability to shell out to external programs.

So you need to feed your mail to SA before it gets to Cyrus (and Sieve). 
This can done by having your MTA feed mail to [something], which then 
feeds the mail to SA and takes the results and sends them to Cyrus. The 
spamcheck.py script in the SA /contrib directory will do this for 
Postfix, not sure about other MTAs. Be careful when using a bridge like 
this, however, as you can lose mail if there are problems.
