I always found Jython excellent for investigating unfamiliar
API's. Maybe you can use some JAVA api for an example. Maybe some JDBC stuff?

A minor quibble, Jython is strongly typed not typeless. But it is
dynamically and not statically typed (but you already knew that). I
think that (J/P)ython is very different from languages were all the
objects are autocasting themselves in that you aren't aware of what
types are really used before something goes Ka-Boom, Jscript and
VBScript springs to mind.
