If you want to get into that level of WP development, you are going to 
have to do some work. I suggest (as someone else already did) starting 
by looking through this page and actually reading the documentation it 
links to:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Developer_Documentation
and also:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Advanced_Topics

There are documents listed on those two pages that describe a lot of 
the functionality of WordPress. For permalinks specifically, this 
guide (linked to on the Dev Doc page) should help you get started:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Query_Overview

But you are going to have to read the PHP source code if you really 
want to understand deeply what WordPress is doing.
