Note that these are also indexed on pypi. Some other packages using  
Cython are

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyAMF
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/cogent
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyYAML
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/jwp_ri
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/line_profiler
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-ctags
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-ecore
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-edje
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-emotion
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-epsilon
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-evas
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/scikits.audiolab
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mwlib
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/TailSpin
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/BIP
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/WorldMill

The project I'm most involved in, http://sagemath.org also has 200,000 
+ lines of Cython code. In principle, any project could use Cython,  
but the most likely candidates are wrappers of external C/C++  
libraries (Cython makes this really easy) and scientific code (where  
speed is highly valued).
