Is there a way to print to an unbuffered output (like stdout)? I've seen

the number of characters!
What the other responses (so far) didn't address is your comment about
"prints the number of characters."
You're presumably testing this in the interpreter, which prints extra
stuff. In particular, it prints the result value of any expressions
entered at the interpreter prompt. So if you type
sys.stdout.write("hello")
then after the write() method is done, the return value of the method
(5) will get printed by the interpreter.
Either put the statement in a real script, or do the following trick to
convince yourself:
dummy = sys.stdout.write("hello")
