 >  What is the best gui api for python ?  
 
Best is such an emotive term. It depends as ever, 
on what you need to do.
 
The widest compatibility is probably Tkinter. The highest 
functionality on any given platform will likely be something else.
 
What platform(s) do you need to be portable across?
What special features do you need?
 
What other emnvironments must you interact with(Gnome, KDE etc?)
 
 
All of these will affect the answer to your question of 
which is bet for you.
