This suggestion will not work for the OP.

It will tell you the platform, for which python was compiled and not the
real platform of the machine you're running on.

If you installed a 32 bit version of python on a 64 bit machine You will
get 'x86', which would be the wrong answer considering the OP's
requirements.
