You can't use 32 bit Python modules with 64-bit Python.

Either install 32-bit python and use the 32-bit Python module with 32-bit
Python (probably the simplest solution for you for now), or alternatively
find (or compile/build yourself -- very non-trivial) a 64-bit build of the
module you're wanting to use and install that instead of the 32-bit
version.

Often http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ will have unofficial
64-bit versions of many common 32-bit Python modules, but unfortunately
this particular package is not listed there.
