We're not automatically generating docs for it yet (that's #2675), but
you can find the docs in
https://raw.github.com/buildbot/buildbot/nine/master/docs/developer/data.rst
and the files linked from there.

However, I think that the import should write directly to the DB using
the DB API:
  https://raw.github.com/buildbot/buildbot/nine/master/docs/developer/database.rst

The Data API's "write" operations are constrained to things that a
buildmaster might need to do, which might not be appropriate for an
import.
