Does anyone know any spells (any spell list) that lower an enemy's Reflex save without a saving throw?
Touch of Gracelessness does Dex damage even on a successful Fort save.
It's not exactly a spell but a witch's Evil Eye hex can lower all saves. It has a will save but all that does is reduce the duration to 1 round which can be extended by Cackle anyway so it's basically save-less.

Anything doing cold damage with rime spell added to it. So long as it does any damage rime spell kicks in and makes the target(s) entangled.
Fear causes panic on a failed save, shaken for a round on a successful save. Shaken is a -2 to further saves. Prediction of failure makes the target shaken and sickened, and the save is to find whether that's permanent or 1 round/level.
Ray of Exhaustion has a save but:
The subject is immediately exhausted for the spell's duration. A successful Fortitude save means the creature is only fatigued.
A character that is already fatigued instead becomes exhausted.
So two hits exhaust the target even if they pass the save.
Polar Ray inflicts 1d4 Dexterity drain, so it has a good chance of reducing Reflex save bonuses. That spell requires a ranged touch attack.
Polar Midnight inflicts 1d6 Dexterity damage per round on anyone in the area of effect who fails a Fortitude save.
on a slightly different but kind of related note is there a way to turn a spell that's normally an aoe spell with reflex for half into a ranged touch spell for no save?
There's no way to drop the save off a spell that I know of. There are ways of changing area spells to ranged touch (q.v. L16+ eldritch archer magus) but they keep their saves.
