It should be doable to create an online launcher performance calculator using Orbiter analogous to Dr. John Shilling's calculator:

It should have a GUI where you could just plug in the specifications of your rocket and get a reasonably accurate estimate of the payload to orbit, without having to be familiar with Orbiter programming.
