For the record in earlier Python versions such as the one the OP is 
using you can do

 >>> allchars = "".join([chr(x) for x in range(256)])
 >>> 'www.example.com'.translate(allchars, 'cmowz.')
'exaple'

As of Python 2.6 you don't even need the allchars hence

 >>> 'www.example.com'.translate(None, 'cmowz.')
'exaple'
