What source did you look at?  There are hardly any better examples of what
you are looking for than the actual, functioning source code.  Here are the
places I recommend you look:

1. The Extending and Embedding Manual - find a pointer at
   http://www.python.org/doc/. 

2. Modules/xxmodule.c in the source distribution - a skeleton module that
   outlines all the necessary bits and pieces.  There's even a stub xxmodule 
   line in Modules/Setup.

3. Any of a number of actual modules in the Modules directory:

   * dbmmodule.c is a pretty simple example of a module that creates an
     object and has to have allocation/deallocation methods, and to define
     both module methods and object methods.

    * soundex.c is a very simple example of a module that doesn't need to
      create any objects.  It just wraps a simple algorithm.

If you can't fathom the contents of the documentation or the source code to
simple modules, you're probably better off looking for a consultant to hire.
