Jalv is a relatively simple example, though it's getting a bit, er,
featureful these days, and quite a bit of it is Jack specific, basically
everything you need to do is in jalv.c which is pretty digestible.

The lilv utilities lv2ls and lv2info might also be useful since they're
very simple and get at plugins, but they don't actually do any
instantiation or running.
