I'm trying to do almost exactly the same thing you are, with the additional step of writing to a single cell before I call the data refresh. It isn't the most elegant solution, but I was able to put together a quick method of waiting for the sheet to refresh before reading the cell contents:

ReportWorkbook.RefreshAll;
while 1
try
Range = get(Activesheet, 'Range', 'B4:F27');
ResultsCell = Range.value;
disp('done!')
break
catch
disp('waiting...')
continue
end
end
