these look light they might be useful for your purpose:

Pylibpcap - A Python module for the libpcap packet capture library. You can use
it to write a custom packet sniffer. [Open Source, BSD-like]

python network library - Dissects network packets, as returned from pylibpcap.
[Open Source, GPL]

pylibnet - Interface for the libnet packet assembly system. [Open Source, GPL]

At least for libpcap there is a Windows port. I know because the win32 flavour
of Ethereal (a GUI packet sniffer) that I use from time to time depends on it.
