Sorry, I missed this part. If you don't mind fixing the problem in your 
script
there is a very easy way to do it:
import MacOS
if not MacOS.WMAvailable():
     raise "Cannot reach the window manager"

WMAvailable() returns true if you can use the window manager, and as a 
side
effect it raises the application to the foreground.
