The SRD seems to imply that Deflect Arrows can block anything short of a Huge Crossbow or siege weaponry.
In kicking it around, I'm thinking of what can actually be deflected. I'm thinking anything that weighs one pound or less, and has a "safe area" that can be hit to deflect it.
So spears, hand axes, and shuriken couldn't be blocked, but arrows, bolts, daggers, and darts could.
If I wanted to "get really real", I could see spears/javelins being deflected, but I'm not so sure about hand axes and such. Sling stones are another problem... it's like deflecting a fastball, even if you deflect it, it still hurts.
