I am replying since your question did not get addressed in the past, but
know that I am not intimately familiar with PyMOL code or python.  I do have
a thought, though, if using a grid approximation would work.  I have done
some work with using MRC density map format in pymol, partly in anticipation
of the v1.4 improvements that will come (I wanted to link to them, but can't
find it...).  There is a 3D grid described by these files, usually encoding
density information.  I have edited (or created) these maps to encode other
types of data.  You could use them to record the potential value at each
point in the grid.  Then the comparison of your two (or more) equal volume
structures is just comparing grid points with the same [x,y,z] triple.
