Internally facter does a lot of the same, FWIW. ;)
I think what you probably want is 'facter --yaml', which emits the data in a
format easily consumed by other applications. Wrap, or cache, or process that
from your Python library and you have a nice, language independent way to get
that data.
Which is essentially what you want, right?
