I've use the external program xte with some success if you don't send it too
many events too quickly. I start it using subprocess and feed it commands. On Ubuntu

  sudo apt-get install xautomation

It uses the XTest extension for X11 to send mouse events to the system. One
could probably easily wrap the xlib API for it using ctypes so you wouldn't have
to bother with an external program.
