I have been using DocBook to document APIs for a long time. Most
recently I have been working on a C and C++ standard backed by the
Object Management Group (which imposes its own formatting rules). The
results can be seen in http://portals.omg.org/hpec/content/specifications
(The sources for these, together with the custom stylesheets are in
https://github.com/vsip/specs.

I have not. I have used a variety of other languages (markdown, ReST,
etc.) to add API documentation into source code, and extract and
translate that to DocBook. In particular, the Boost.org project
(http://boost.org) uses a DocBook extension called BoostBook with
additional markup for C++ APIs. (A few years ago I mentored a GSoC
student to rebase that work over DocBook 5. That's unfortunately not
entirely finished. I hope to be able to complete this eventually, once
the DocBook repo migrates to github and gets cleaned up a little.)
