You can use the overloaded method for writeNext which accepts boolean as a parameter.

void writeNext(String[] nextLine, boolean applyQuotesToAll)

In this pass the boolean as false to ignore the quotes.

[EDIT]

You can also use the constructor to disable the quotes.

CSVWriter writer = new CSVWriter(outputfile, ',',
                                 CSVWriter.NO_QUOTE_CHARACTER,
                                 CSVWriter.DEFAULT_ESCAPE_CHARACTER,
                                 CSVWriter.DEFAULT_LINE_END);

There is a version of writeNext() that takes a boolean which controls whether the quotes should be applied to all values, or just those that need to be quoted. The one you are using quotes all values.

instead of:

writer.writeNext(data);

use:

writer.writeNext(data, false);

See: http://opencsv.sourceforge.net/apidocs/com/opencsv/ICSVWriter.html#writeNext-java.lang.String:A-boolean-
