In some cases, it's looking at the source code[1]. There's a bit more documentation there, though some is just reading the code to see what it does. Or searching the source for the function to see how it's used. I've done that in particular to get something tightly integrated in the standard UI.
One thing to keep in mind is some of the stuff people utilize isn't so much API anymore as hooking into the ingame UI code. The main difference is (theoretically) using the API would be more stable and less likely to break.
