I see.
Your best option is to use IMDbPY to parse the 'ratings' page of a movie, then.
Something like:
import imdb
ia = imdb.IMDb()
m = ia.get_movie('0133093')
print m.get('number of votes')
Obviously you also have to 'votes' and 'rating' keys.
There are also the 'mean and median' and 'demographic voters'
keys, but seems to be broken, at the moment.
Problem is, this method will be really slow, if you have to parse
many movies. Plus, you also need to know their IDs (or do a search).
Have you tried asking directly IMDb, for these information?
