  public Task<HttpResponseMessage> SomeApiMethod()
          {
              return Request.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync().ContinueWith(s =>
              {
                  var doc = XDocument.Load(s.Result);

  Throws: Cannot access a closed Stream, but ReadAsString() works fine.

  That sounds like a bug. It shouldn't have closed if it hasn't been read.

  It would be helpful if you could past the entire Action method here. I say this because, a similar scenario like yours works for me:
  
  [HttpPost]
          public Task<string> TestActionReadingAsStream()
          {
              return Request.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync().ContinueWith<string>(tsk =>
                  {
                      string value = null;
  
                      using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(tsk.Result))
                      {
                          value = reader.ReadToEnd();
                      }
  
                      return value;
                  });
          }
