ctypes is your friend
from ctypes import *

If you have t.dll exporting INCREMENT

# load dll
inc = windll.LoadLibrary("t.dll")

# Initiate c-variable for the dll
n=c_int(1)

# Call the dll one
inc.INCREMENT(byref(n))
print "The integer is now: %d" % n.value

# And a few times more:
for i in range(5):
    inc.INCREMENT(byref(n))
    print "The square of the integer is now: %d" % n.value**2
