How difficult it will be to do, and what you need to do to make your app publicly accessible, will depend on the hosts TOS. It's definitely accomplishable with the vast majority of hosts. Personally, I prefer a host that gives me root on a box (or virtual machine). I've had a great time with slicehost (http://slicehost.com). However, going this route means that you'll have to learn quite a bit on the sys-admin side. Slicehost has great articles written on various things, and there's plenty of resources on the web (and in man pages) about what you need to do to configure and secure a webserver, but it's still a lot of learning. It is, however, stuff that you'll probably want to get familiar with eventually anyhow, if you're writing web-facing python (or any other language!). There are a few hosts that specialize in, or explicitly offer python hosting, http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonHosting has an overview of them.
