IMO, python's a lot more practical than perl (at least until perl is
majorly overhauled for perl 6 :-S).

With python, the "os" module has a statvfs function, and the statvfs
module has symbolic constants to facilitate using the os.statvfs
function.

I used this API recently to summarize disk usage in a filesystem that
doesn't have quota support.  I had to compile python with "large file"
support though, even though IBM claims in some contexts that programs
are supposed to be large file-enabled on AIX by default.  But of course,
this assumes you'll be looking at somes that are over 2 gigabytes in
size...
