How was your dropTarget object created ?
Normally, you'd create a class that implements the
methods of IDropTarget and either register it or
wrap it for local use using pythoncom.WrapObject.

It does look like PyIDropTarget is lacking docs, I'll
try to improve them.  Also, the other interface you'll
probably need (PyIDataObject) needs some
attention in the docs.
