It looks like what you need is a simple modification of the present stem plot: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/stem_plot.html For now, you may be able to use the source--the stem method of the Axes class in matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/axes.py--to come up with your own function to do the job. Longer term, you, I, or someone else, should add this capability to that method via a keyword argument giving the baseline as a constant, or as an array of points corresponding to the input x variable. Even more options are possible.
