We do provide precomiled binaries for Windows (64bit), so you should be able to just 'pip install osmium' without building libosmium yourself. I admit that this is not well tested because we don't have a maintainer with a Windows development platform (and experience with it). If you run into trouble, feel free to file an issue and we see what we can do.
