The CSV module is probably the easiest way to go:
>>> data = "|string|, |string|, |string that may contain commas
inside|, 1, 2, 3, |other string|"
>>> import csv
>>> reader = csv.reader([data], quotechar="|", skipinitialspace=True)
>>> for row in reader:
print row
['string', 'string', 'string that may contain commas inside', '1',
'2', '3', 'other string']
