You can actually take any DB-API database result row and turn it into
a dictionary:
>>> import MySQLdb
>>> db=MySQLdb.connect(db="mysql",read_default_file="~/.my.cnf")
>>> c=db.cursor()
>>> c.execute("select * from user")
6L
>>> for row in c.fetchall():
... d = dict( [ (c.description[i][0], j) for i,j in enumerate(row) ] )
... print d
...

Or make a helper function to do this. (Example left as an exercise for
the reader.)
