I swear I saw an AI station with two mass drivers.

How does this help anything?

Would it catch Packet attacks better than a single mass driver?

so many games, so little time

It's all in the help file:

Building Two Mass Drivers on a Starbase
You can build up to two identical mass drivers on the same starbase (assuming you haven't used an Orbital slot with a stargate already). This has two advantages: 1) you can catch incoming packets at one warp speed greater than the driver's nominal rating; and 2) overflung packets from dual drive starbases decay as if they were flung at one warp speed lower.
