Are you asking if there's a way to ask a module for a list of its
methods when documentation is lacking on the internet?  Or are you
looking for good sources of documentation?

I can't help you with probing modules; but I've always had pretty good
luck checking:
http://docs.python.org/modindex.html

Of course, most modules are "new" to me!
