There is also the Pyston project from Dropbox. Presumably that includes a Python parser.

I'm not affiliated with the project.

With that in mind, will use the AST modules provided by the languages (with the exception of libclang for C++).

Antoine: Am aware of Numba, nice job there BTW. So is there a \[decoupled\] LLVM parser which I can use to read Python files and analyse objects (including computing their attributes in OO and setattr scenarios)?

A programming language is much more than a parser and AST. It has
specific semantics, and a runtime (in the case of Python, the runtime is
very large as it hosts a lot of functionality).

So it wouldn't make much sense to have "just a parser".

However, if you are looking for an implementation of a subset of Python
using LLVM, you can take a look at Numba: http://numba.pydata.org/
