Parse it as a generic PyObject object (format string of "O" in
PyArg_*), check the type and cast it.  Or use "O!" as format string
and the typechecking can be done for you, only thing left is casting
it.

See http://docs.python.org/c-api/arg.html and http://docs.python.org/c-api/file.html
for exact details.
