My best suggestions are to visit the Cairo website -- inside there somewhere 
is a recipe page with many samples in Python. 

Next would be  http://www.tortall.net/mu/wiki/CairoTutorial. 

Third is a tutorial I made (perhaps less useful) on my site 
http://otherwise.relics.co.za/wiki/Tuts/Python/Cairo/ links at bottom of that 
page

Fourth is to join the cairo at cairographics.org mailing list at 
http://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo they are super helpful.

Lastly is my animation API (in sig)which is also Python and may help you with 
the source.

The general idea for scaling is to use matrices (cairo provides all commands) 
and then output the surface to a file-like object.

My animation API brings selected snippets of SVG in from an Inkscape file 
(tagged by id), animates them by tweening and can output each frame to another 
SVG or to a PNG.

HTH,
