I don't really think they deserve documenting.

pystones can arguably be a cheap and easy way of comparing performance of different systems *using the exact same Python interpreter*. It's the only point of running pystones.

As for pybench, it probably had a point when there wasn't anything better, but I don't think it has anymore. We have a much better benchmarks suite right now, and we also have a couple specialized benchmarks in the tools directory.
