Please send emails to xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org.
Give a look under tools/libxl in the Xen repository
(git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git).
The interface is libxl.h. Types are autogenerated from an idl, see
libxl_types.idl. A python binding existing under
tools/python/xen/lowlevel/xl, but it has been a while since the last
time that it was updated.

The python bindings are broken and don't even build, plus has some
conceptual issues in the design.
It needs throwing away and rewriting.

I have recently used this out of tree project:
https://github.com/selectel/pyxs
with succes.
It has on LGPL license, although the last commit is also from 2 years ago,
(but perhaps there weren't much problems and changes to xenstore in the
meantime).

That's only for xenstore, not for libxl.
libvirt has decent Python bindings, so that might be a reasonable route
to being able to run things from Python. (AIUI that's how openstack does
it for example...)
