You're probably looking from the wrong place. At least the answer can be
found from
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&idoc=0&file=plpgsql-statements.html
On that page, heading 19.5.3 states that you can do:
PERFORM MYFUNCTION(...);
if you wish to discard the return value.
Or if your function returns something then you do:
myresult:=MYFUNCTION(...);
