Are you sure? From the link you provided it looks as if: *stat*( path) Perform a stat() system call on the given path. The return value is an object whose attributes correspond to the members of the statstructure, namely: st_mode (protection bits), st_ino (inode number), st_dev (device), st_nlink(number of hard links), st_uid (user ID of owner), st_gid (group ID of owner), st_size (size of file, in bytes), st_atime (time of most recent access), st_mtime (time of most recent content modification), st_ctime (platform dependent; time of most recent metadata change on Unix, or the time of creation on Windows):
>>> import os >>> statinfo = os.stat('somefile.txt') >>> statinfo (33188, 422511L, 769L, 1, 1032, 100, 926L, 1105022698,1105022732, 1105022732) >>> statinfo.st_size 926L >>> does exactly what you want.
