One approach might be to use IFaceTableGen.py, GetScriptableInterface as a starting point. There was some preliminary work on that a few years ago but I don't think it was ever finished. I think it ran out of steam because auto-generated documentation wasn't going to be as nice as the hand-edited stuff in ScintillaDoc.html. But it might get you started, maybe easier than working with the raw, unprocessed iface file.
To answer your specific question, blank (void) parameters are ignored by Lua. There are some other special cases, too. Some parameter types have special handling (keymod, stringresult, and "length"). As well, there are some unsupported parameter types (cells, textrange, findtext, and formatrange); Lua doesn't expose functions that use those. If you need any more support figuring out what LuaExtension is doing for a given function, just and I'll be happy to help. Having some more comprehensive documentation for Lua would be a great addition to make it accessible to more people.
