Not quite sandboxing Python, but I've seen people use my Lupa [1] library for this. They're writing all their code in Python, and then let users embed their own Lua code into it to script their API. The Lua runtime is apparently quite good at sandboxing, and it's really small, just some 600KB or so. Lupa then lets you easily control the access to your Python code at a whitelist level by intercepting all Python attribute lookups. It doesn't add much to your application to embed Lua (or even LuaJIT) in Python, and it gives users a nicely object oriented language to call and orchestrate your Python objects.
