If you are running on Windows, look into pywinauto 
(http://www.openqa.org/pywinauto/).

I have successfully used it to interact with a Flash animation running 
within an IE browser.

I also had to inspect the graphics displayed by the Flash animation, for 
this I used PIL (http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/).

Good luck,
