They beat up enemies such as cliff racers and slaughter fish, depending on where you are, if they attack you. If gaurds attack you and send you to jail they'll also confiscate all of your stolen items.

They are there as a deterrent for crime.

They still could be subjects for Command Humanoid - with all consequences.

Not much, just people under this spell follow you and fight on your side - while the spell lasts, then they return to their business. The spell is costly and hard to use, however, morover since there's hardly a way to guess NPC's level in game. There's no chance to Command the Master of Tel Fyr, for example, his level is 65.
There's similar spell Command Creature, BTW.
Have been told that so one could release slaves from places where is no key - just leading them to nearby place which key is in the pocket already. Never tried myself, though.
P.S. There is a scroll with both those spells in the game holding much more than a PC could normally cast.

The mod 'Dracandos Voice' is an excellent mod that allows you to command faction members of lower rank than yourself. However guards can only be commanded by the faction leader... Makes it well worth advancing in the Imperial Legion/Temple - you can essentially command any guards/ordinators...
