try this instead:

    >>> pixels = "1 2 3 4 5 6"
    >>> i = Image.new("L", (3, 2))
    >>> i.putdata(map(int, pixels.split()))

    >>> list(i.getdata())
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

    >>> i.getextrema()
    (1, 6)

(getdata returns a sequence object of an undefined type. to
see what's in it, convert it to a list or tuple before printing it)
