Andreas Franke gave some information about the email API in this recent 
newsgroup posting:

news://news.mozilla.org:119/3C5E4A83.983C2599@ags.uni-sb.de

The best documentation I know of for the XML API is the code itself:

http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/bugzilla/Bug.pm
http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/bugzilla/xml.cgi

You can probably also learn a lot from viewing an XML version of a bug:

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/xml.cgi?id=12345

A number of console utilities have been written, at least one of which 
appears to exist in the contrib/ directory:

http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/bugzilla/contrib/cmdline/

HTTP (XML-RPC, SOAP, DOM Level 3 Load & Save, etc.) APIs have been 
discussed before, but none of them have been implemented as far as I know.
