Yes, try Pythondoc (www.python.org, then SIGs, then DocSig). It is
advertised for extracting docstrings, but even without docstrings
it returns useful information about the contents of a module,
and that in a machine-friendly XML format. And it's even rather easy
to add a formatter for some another format if that's more convenient
for you.
