I understand that SWIG, Boost, et. al are perhaps too heavyweight for 
this one use, but you might want to give Cython a try. It makes it 
really easy to grab a numpy array (and tst it for compliance), and then 
you can do whatever you want with the data pointer:

http://wiki.cython.org/WrappingNumpy (this one is marked as depricated, 
but may be what you want in your case, as you do want a raw C array)

Some wore googling and browsing of the Cython list will likely yield 
examples similar to yours.
