I did try saving a test contact to the phone itself and seeing if I could grep for it, to no avail.
A quick google around suggests that the contacts are in a file
/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db
No idea about the format, though.
Berkeley DB possibly?
As others have stated, sqlite.
Berkeley DB is only ever any use if you want straight key->value pairs.
It's what Evolution uses for its addresses database, that's why I suggested it - the above file *is* an addresses database so it was a not unreasonable idea.
My wife's evolution addresses are at:-
~/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db
... and that most definitely is a Berkeley DB.
