You have API reference for gtk+-2.3 and headers for gtk+-2.[20]. 
gtk_alignment_set_padding() is in gtk+-2.3. Check what packages you have 
installed.

It's possible with gtk_misc_set_padding() function:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkMisc.html#gtk-misc-set-padding

All you need is to call:
gtk_misc_set_padding(GTK_MISC(label), 5,5);
