I am new to Java, I would like to become really good in web scraping and parsing data
Are there any sites related to web scraping that would help me understand the how the APIs like htmcleaner, web-harvest, htmlparser work??
I'm still not proficient enough in Java to look at their Javadocs and understand how all their methods work, and cannot find Java code examples(tutorials) on the web that would help me.

Yes. There are many powerful Java libraries used for web scraping. Two such examples are JSoup and HtmlUnit. These libraries help you connect to a web page and offer many methods to extract the desired information.
So is it legal or illegal? Web scraping and crawling aren't illegal by themselves. After all, you could scrape or crawl your own website, without a hitch. Startups love it because it's a cheap and powerful way to gather data without the need for partnerships.
For this purpose smart web scraping is your number one growth hacker tool. Developing strong, reliable leads has always been a key feature of web scraping, and it's as simple as understanding where your target audience is active online and scraping those sites for specific information.
Why don't you try with this library: JSoup?
The cookbook introduction is a good place where to start or you can go straight to the other specific code examples if you prefer.
