for the dbm version of the stored you can do this:
open the dbm file, iterate over the keys (which is the token)
for each key extract a python object, which is a pickled
object (for most cases a 2-tuple (ham and spam count
for the key, sometimes a 3-tuple, but I dont know yet why)

So you can extract the ham/spam count for each token (roughly
a token is a word from a mail plus special words, like how
many entries have been in the to: and cc: filed of the header).

read the source, it is very annotated whith comments that
say, why something is done.
