Well, there are plenty at LuaRocks (http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/ http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/). It's no CPAN, but the essentials are there. I'm working on a couple, such as Tamale (http://github.com/silentbicycle/tamale/ http://github.com/silentbicycle/tamale/), which adds Erlang-style pattern matching. I'll post it on LuaRocks once the docs are done.
Of course, if you're embedding Lua (in a game, for example) you've already got the libraries you need, and extra libraries would just get in the way.
