Ed,

My understanding is that some of the ODBC modules are db-api compliant.

1. pyodbc - Python ODBC library

Windows, Linux, OS/X

apilevel: The string constant '2.0' indicating this module supports DB

API level 2.0.

http://code.google.com/p/pyodbc/wiki/Module

2. A fast MS SQL Server client library for Python directly using C API

instead of ODBC.

It is Python DB-API 2.0 compliant. Works on Linux, *BSD, Solaris, Mac OS

X and Windows.

http://code.google.com/p/pymssql/

Perhaps you are thinking of the pywin32 ODBC module which is a Python

wrapper for ODBC function calls vs. a db-api wrapper?
