I have written something that does something like this, but I am not
sure it is the pythonic way.
Bascially I am loading the module and then using dir() on the module
object I am looking for
attribute of the type classobj (for old style classes) and type type
(for new style classes).

I also heard of the inspect module, but I haven't checked it yet.
