The structure SPITupleTable is defined thus:
typedef struct
{
MemoryContext tuptabcxt; /* memory context of result table */
uint32 alloced; /* number of alloced vals */
uint32 free; /* number of free vals */
TupleDesc tupdesc; /* row descriptor */
HeapTuple *vals; /* rows */
} SPITupleTable;
If the select query returns 10 rows (say),
how to access the result of each row separately?
Can you please help me with the syntax of the same?

Did you read the whole page?
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/spi-spi-execute.html
Especially the bit where it says:
If the return value of the function is SPI_OK_SELECT then you may use
the global pointer SPITupleTable *SPI_tuptable to access the result
rows.
From there you can get the data. There's also the helper functions like
SPI_getvalue().

Hope this helps,
