You could use SimpleXMLRPCServer to create a client in your view.py with a function to call the server side, and pass the information over when done.
See: http://docs.python.org/library/simplexmlrpcserver.html You'd need to have the server side running the whole time in the background, if you loose the connection, then it would need to be restarted otherwise you'll get a 'connection refused'.
