The locale module can help you here:
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
'English_United States.1252'
>>> locale.format('%d', 123456789, True)
'123,456,789'
Be sure to read the caveats for setlocale in the module docs:
http://docs.python.org/lib/node323.html
I'd recommend calling setlocale only once, and always at the start of
your program.
