Apart from being trivial to calculate the volume of a two dimensional object (it's zero), the universe being flat doesn't mean it is two dimensional. Flat has a special meaning in this context which is defined by curvature and quickly heads away from Euclidean to Riemannian spaces and manifold theory. I knew this stuff thirty odd years ago but the details have faded away.
