If the java class is java.net.URL, from python you can use it like this:
  from java.net import URL
If you have the pylucene sources, take a look at its tests and samples, they 
have a bunch of usage examples.

As for other uses than wrapping lucene, sure !
I remember wrapping tika once, a pretty long command line...
