I have, and I spent a little bit playing with extending my build script to scrape their API, however it wasn't dead easy so I haven't thrown a whole lot more time at it. An issue I'm running into is that the build clojure program can't tell if there are examples for a given symbol and clobbers the existing example and doc files on every pass. I expect to remove that script soon and freeze the doc files at which point I'll probably kick out a minimal bash script to pirate what examples I can from clojuredocs.
I'd also welcome a PR if you care to hack such a thing yourself :P As to having a better frontpage and generally better navigation, I will be attempting to address those issues in the next full build/release of Grimoire because at present the homepage is close to useless and navigation in general could be better. Motivation and contribution pages will likely be part of this rework. I don't honestly think that Grimoire is likely to supplant clojuredocs. My issue with clojuredocs is that I'm looking at years-old docs and examples (which may still work), and Grimoire solves that issue by making me the bottleneck in updating the docs I use rather than zk's free time. Besides, clojuredocs already has a _lot_ of google-foo and I don't expect *.arrdem.com/* to ever catch up, but that's fine. It surves my purposes and if it can serve yours as well so much the better.
