No there isn't (much). OPSI is the new name for HMSO Online, and its web
site says:
"The Office of Public Sector Information is at the heart of information
policy, setting standards, delivering access and encouraging re-use of
public sector information. We provide online access to UK legislation,
license the re-use of Crown copyright material, manage the Information Fair
Trader Scheme, maintain the Government's Information Asset Register and
provide advice and guidance on official publishing and Crown copyright."
So OPSI does have something to do with Freedom of Information, but more as a
provider of information than as an independent regulator.

Does anyone know whether there is any connection between the Information
Commissioner and the Office of Public Sector Information?
