Hey Kevin,

this is the UNO reference:

http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/module-ix.html

There are some examples, but they are scarce unfortunately. It's worth 
looking in libreoffice sources itself as well, if you don't mind C++. 
The API is almost the same in all bindings, so you should be able to 
read any example as long as you focus on UNO API and ignore the 
constructors involved.

ciao,
