I happened to read the apidoc some time ago and remebered something like this. 
And so I searched skype (http://search.skype.com) for "dbus" and heres one of 
them:
https://developer.skype.com/Docs/ApiDoc/Skype_API_on_Linux

But first I did this:
ldd `which skype` | grep -i dbus
strings `which skype` | grep -i dbus

now.
