Does he want servermanager.Fetch()? That will bring the output data produced by a particular filter back to the client. From there you can use the py wrapped vtk API to work with the data set and the arrays it contains directly.
Alternatively he can write a py programmable filter that can access the data on the server side, but in parallel he'll have to be away of the way the data is split across processors.
