Yes, using the cgi module! :-)

Exactly like any other CGI program - its a *Common* gateway interface,
that is, it is the same regardless of language. So you just send an
http GET or POST message from VBScript and Python will pick it up
and extract the values into the field storage in the cgi module.

The cgi documentation gives some simple examples.
