What I need to do is to create a custom interface that allows end users to enter reporting filtering criteria (as defined in the report) then execute and display the report. In order to do that I would need to get the predefined filtering data from the report definition. If anyone has experience with implementing something like this or advanced report interface development I'd like to hear from you.

By custom interface do you mean a dashboard? An SSRS dashboard?
If so - you can utilize drill through / sub reporting techniques to get to different granularity's of data.
The dashboard can be your custom interface providing drill through reports to the categories displayed.

No, not a dashboard. I want to develop reports and give end users and nice interface with which they can modify filter criteria, sorting setting and output format for the report and then pass that to the report and run it. I want to build a nice interface so that they don't have to use the designer utility to modify the report settings because they could potentially change things in the report that they shouldn't change either on purpose or accidentally.
