this has to do with the DBAPI allowing it.   It’s often possible but you need 
to do it in such a way that the DBAPI lets it pass through.

I’d start by experimenting with a DBAPI cursor, suppose this is pyodbc (I’m not 
sure that this is, but this seems like SQL server)

import pyodbc

conn = pyodbc.connect(user=‘u’, password=’t’, dsn=‘mydsn’)
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute("set @temp=0;select (@temp:= @temp + 1) as ranking, userid from 
mytable;”)
print cursor.fetchall()

Alternatively, you can get at a cursor from SQLAlchemy using the instructions 
at 
http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_9/core/connections.html#working-with-raw-dbapi-connections
 
<http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_9/core/connections.html#working-with-raw-dbapi-connections>.

if you can get a DBAPI cursor working, then that’s what you’d do with 
SQLAlchemy execute() also.  if that doesn’t work, then you can post here what 
the cursor can do that SQLAlchemy can’t.
