If you can build a wrapper function which returns a boost::numeric::ublas::vector<float>, you can use the wrappers into the mds-utils library (http://code.google.com/p/mds-utils/ ... it's my library). If you build the doxygen documentation, you'll find a "Python C++ extensions utilities": use the "vector.hpp" and look at the usage examples.
