In addition to all of the previous suggestions, a quick way to get the
Makefile and source code :

apxs2 -g -n sample

creates a directory named "sample" and source files in there (e.g.
"mod_sample.c" that contains a VERY good starting point (this info
should be in the archives somewhere).

Yep, replying to a six-week-old email. In case there are any other newbie module devs out there like me, the above looks like a very attractive option. I'd been using Josh Rotenberg's mod_skeleton but it suddenly flatly refused to compile anything on a recent Debian ("I didn't change anything", the luser said), and I was kind of helpless because the Makefiles it generates and the process by which it gets them are far, *far* too twisted for anyone not entirely immersed in libtool & httpd culture to have any hope of understanding them.

Now, the apxs-generated skeleton didn't quite fit; I have a src/ subdirectory and two or three extra .c files... but it took like 3 minutes looking at the reasonably-straightforward Makefile and various pieces of *.mk that get included in to fix that.
