The Benchmark objects have a "run" method:

In [2]: import reindex

In [3]: reindex.reindex_fillna_pad.run()
Out[3]:
{'loops': 1000,
 'repeat': 3,
 'succeeded': True,
 'timing': 0.12795305252075195,
 'units': 'ms'}

Make a list of benchmarks of interest, any, with a little getattr
action, you should be in business.
