Here's some code that does the trick.

It returns a tuple:
(coefficient, (luminance_coefficient,luminance_error), 
(chrominance_coefficient,chrominance_error))

Note:
- The 2nd and 3rd returned items are only useful if you're interested in the 
error (sometimes the error is 0 if the program used a JPEG table that is the 
same as the one used by PIL).
- Fredrik: You can freely use the code and embed it in PIL if you're satisfied 
with its quality

Code:
def get_jpeg_quantization_tables(f):
    """Returns the JPEG quantization tables of a filename or file descriptor"""
    from functools import partial
    import Image
    import numpy as N
    fd    = Image.open(f)
    if fd.format == 'BMP':
        return N.ones((8,8)),N.ones((8,8))
    q     = fd.quantization
    ql,qc = 
map(partial(N.array,dtype='uint8'),(q.get(0,N.zeros(64)),q.get(1,N.zeros(64))))
    # Now reorder the JPEG quantification coefficients as 8x8 matrices
    jpeg_natural_order = N.array([ 0,  1,  8, 16,  9,  2,  3, 10, 17, 24, 32, 
25, 18, 11,  4,  5, 12,

37, 44, 51, 58, 59, 52,

        rqc[y] = qc[x]
    return rql.reshape(8,8),rqc.reshape(8,8) # Luminance/Chrominance

    if not ctables:

        for x in xrange(100):
            fd = StringIO()
            Image.new('RGB',(64,64)).save(fd,"jpeg",quality=1+x)
            fd.seek(0)
            ql,qc = get_jpeg_quantization_tables(fd)
            tables[x][0] = ql
            tables[x][1] = qc
        ctables.append(tables)
    else:

    # Use a weighting matrix w to put more emphasis on the comparison of lower 
DCT harmonics
    w     = 1./N.outer(1+N.arange(8)/7.,1+N.arange(8)/7.)
    ql,qc = get_jpeg_quantization_tables(f)
    # Compute errors on Luminance and Chrominance tables
    errsl,errsc = [],[]
    for x in xrange(100):
        errsl.append((N.square((ql-tables[x][0])*w).mean(),x))

    # Select minimal error coefficients
    lmin = min(errsl)
    cmin = min(errsc)
    # Weight coefficients average (more emphasis put on luminance since it 
affects most visual perception)
    q = int(round(lmin[1]*.8 + cmin[1]*.2))
    return q,lmin,cmin

Subject: Re: [Image-SIG] How to get quality of picture

The quality setting is used to create a quantization table which is
then used by the compression algorithm.  There's no pre-defined
mapping between quality and the contents of the quantization table for
JPEG (different implementations do different things), but some
applications attempt to guess by comparing the quantization tables in
the file with known mapping algorithms.  I'm not aware of any such
code for Python.

If you want to tinker with this, you can access the quantization table
of an opened JPEG file via the "quantization" attribute.
