While transforming Notes documents using DXL, and an XSLT stream pulled in from a Page in a database, I needed to add a parameter to the Stylesheet and AddParameter documentation in R6 was non-existent. Here's how it works:
To add information from outside of the NotesXSLTransformer Object, (that's information available to the agent), you can add values to the transformer using:
Dim transformer As NotesXSLTransformer
Set transformer=session.CreateXSLTransformer
Call transformer.AddParameter("globalparameter" , "God")
To reference that parameter in the Stylesheet, after it has been added to the Transformer, use this XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:dxl="http://www.lotus.com/dxl" version="1.0"> <xsl:output
method="text"/> <xsl:param name="globalparameter"/> <xsl:template
match="/*"> <xsl:apply-templates
select="dxl:item[@readers='true'][descendant::dxl:text]
">
<xsl:with-param name="globalparameter" select="$globalparameter"/>
</xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:template>
<xsl:template
match="dxl:item[@readers='true'][descendant::dxl:text	
3;">
<xsl:param name="globalparameter"/>
<xsl:for-each select="descendant::dxl:text">
<xsl:text/><xsl:value-of select="$globalparameter"/><xsl:value-
of select="normalize-space(.)"/>;<xsl:text/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The XSLT, in my case, was put on a page called "readers.xsl." Although I didn't call the page from the browser, as an XSLT using its URL, I changed the Page Properties box (Alt+Enter) >> Web Access (part of the first Tab), and set the values to "Other: text/xsl."
How I got LotusScript to pull the XSLT off the page and how I got the readers fields off a Domino document is listed below for those of you who might want to see the whole enchilada.
P.S. I left the rem'd out lines so you can un-rem them and see what output you get when running the agent with Debug LotusScript ON.

The uneventful Output is:
;[System];
CN=Sean S Haggerty/OU=SoCal/O=My
Business;God_C5;God_C2;God_C6;;
And the DXL for the Notes Document was:
<item name='readersPoster' names='true'
readers='true'><text>
CN=Sean S Haggerty/OU=SoCal/O=My
Business</text></item>
