raw_input() returns a string, so there's no need for these 3 lines:

> y = str(y)
> z = str(z)
> p = str(p)

> pagedef = ("http://www.localcallingguide.com/xmllocalprefix.php?npa="; + y + "&nxx=" + z)
> print "Querying", pagedef
>
> #------Get info from NANPA.com ----------
> urllib2.install_opener(opener)
> page = urllib2.urlopen(pagedef)
> soup = BeautifulSoup(page)
> soup = str(soup)
>
> #------Parse Gathered Data----------
> for line in npaReg.findall(soup):

>     count = count + 1

enumerate will help you here:

for count, line in enumerate(npaReg.findall(soup)):
    npalist.insert(count, line)

for count2, line2 in enumerate(nxxReg.findall(soup)):
    nxxlist.insert(count2, line2)

If you're going to sort them anyway (so you don't need to preserve the existing order), the easiest way to remove duplicates is to use a set:

sortedlist = sorted(set(sortlist))
