Well, there is lua_concat and lua_objlen. Comparing the metamethods with the API, there does not seem to be a match for the arithmetic operations or for __le. This last was quite recently added to Lua (it used to be synthesised from __lt and __eq) so maybe the API never caught up. It would be useful (if only for orthogonality) to have API functions for the arithmetic operations also!
