Is the following of any help to you?

 >>> class testclass:
...   a = 'a'
...
 >>> dir(testclass)
['__doc__', '__module__', 'a']
 >>> testclass.__dict__
{'a': 'a', '__module__': '__main__', '__doc__': None}
 >>> import inspect
 >>> inspect.classify_class_attrs(testclass)
[('__doc__', 'data', <class __main__.testclass at 0x00AFBE70>, None), 
('__module
__', 'data', <class __main__.testclass at 0x00AFBE70>, '__main__'), 
('a', 'data'
, <class __main__.testclass at 0x00AFBE70>, 'a')]


There are other methods in "inspect" which could help you.
