I've written the following function for retrieving the links from a
given Org Mode buffer.
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(defun my/org-collect-links-in-buffer (buffer)
"Collect all the links in the current buffer. If the link has a
description, then it is also collected.
Returns a list of PLISTS of the form:
((:link LINK)
(:link LINK :desc DESC)
(:link LINK))"
(with-current-buffer buffer
(save-excursion
(beginning-of-buffer)
(let (links)
(while (re-search-forward org-any-link-re nil t)
(catch 'done
(let* ((element (org-element-context))
(type (org-element-type element)))
(unless (eq type 'link)
(throw 'done t))
(let (obj
(link (org-element-property :raw-link element))
desc)
(push link obj)
(push :link obj)
(when (and (org-element-property :contents-begin element)
(org-element-property :contents-end element))
(setq desc (buffer-substring-no-properties
(org-element-property :contents-begin element)
(org-element-property :contents-end element)))
(push desc obj)
(push :desc obj))
(push obj links)))))
links))))
#+END_SRC
I would really appreciate any feedback.

I would probably do it like this:
(org-element-map (org-element-parse-buffer) 'link
(lambda (lnk)
(let ((lnkplist '()))
(setq lnkplist (plist-put lnkplist :link (org-element-property
:raw-link lnk)))
(when (org-element-property :contents-begin lnk)
(setq lnkplist (plist-put lnkplist :desc (buffer-substring-no-properties
(org-element-property :contents-begin lnk)
(org-element-property :contents-end lnk)))))
lnkplist)))

Thanks for the help! I just found this question at Emacs SE:
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/38276 which asks this exact
question. I'm mentioning it just in case someone has this question
again.
P.S.: Sorry for creating this thread. I thought it was such a specific
question that nobody had asked before.
