There is a new section discussing alignment in the numpy 1.14 structured array docs, which has some hints about interfacing with C structs.
These new 1.14 docs are not online yet on scipy.org, but in the meantime you can view them here: https://ahaldane.github.io/user/basics.rec.html#automatic-byte-offsets-and-alignment (That links specifically to the discussion of alignments and padding).
