Maybe the description from the homepage says it best:

The PyPy project aims at producing a flexible and fast Python 
implementation. The guiding idea is to translate a Python-level 
description of the Python language itself to lower level languages. 
Rumors have it that the secret goal is being faster-than-C which is 
nonsense, isn't it?
