I cannot find pywin32 documentation or even a little synopsis of what the module is (I am aware its for win32 API stuff).

Is there any pywin32 documentation or resources? Maybe some examples?

The PyWin32 installation includes a .chm help file at [Pythonpath]\Lib\site-packages\PyWin32.chm.

The same info is online at http://timgolden.me.uk/pywin32-docs/index.html

ActiveState used to keep this documentation online as well, including listings of modules and objects, but that seems to be taken offline.
