I count the number of values that I want to put in the IN () clause,
then create a query string with the right number of bind variables
in the in clause, then bind the values.

So for {1, 3, 5} I'd use "select * from foo where bar in (?, ?, ?)" and for
{1,5,7,9,11} I'd use "select * from foo where bar in (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"

Then, in perl-speak, I prepare that string into a query, loop through
all my values and bind them one by one, then execute the query.

You mean something like:

items=(1,2,5,6,9)

cursor.execute("SELECT ... FROM foo where bar in (%s)" % ','.join('?'*len(items)),items)

? :-)

Oh.. I forgot he said PHP...
