Do you mean:

import objc
objc.loadBundle("WebKit",globals(),bundle_path="/System/Library/ 
Frameworks/WebKit.framework")
del objc

You probably want:

import WebKit
wb = WebKit.WebView.alloc().init()

because:

wb = WebKit.WebView()

is going to raise "TypeError: Use class methods to instantiate new  
Objective-C objects"

You shouldn't be getting that particular error.  What version of PyObjC  
and OS X are you using?  I'm using a month old CVS version of PyObjC  
(Dec 03 2003) on OS X 10.3.2 (7D24).  Are you sure that you have WebKit  
installed?  Is there *anything* in the imported WebKit module --  
dir(WebKit)?
