If I open iCloud in System Preferences, it says I have 5 GB of storage available. I'd like to use it to back up some zip archives of source code. Is that possible, or can you only access that storage through specific programs?
Update – I've accepted the answer about the Mobile Backups folder, but I it is not quite what I want for a backup system, so I'm not going to use iCloud for this. If I delete a file from Mobile Backups, it will disappear from the iCloud folder, but I want protection from accidental deletion. I want plain old file storage.

Yes you can — iCloud can be used to sync anything that you wish.
Alternatively, you can symlink a folder on your Mac in to the Mobile Documents folder so that the files remain in their original location.
