The first thing to figure out is that Apple calls an app that can live
in the menu bar "NSStatusItem".  Knowing that makes it a LOT easier to
find documentation for writing them.  I highly recommend getting a
copy of AppKiDo to browse the Cocoa docs, if you don't already have
it.

I posted a very simple example of getting an NSStatusItem using PyObjC
on this list awhile back:

Let me know if it helps, or if you need more help getting going.
