I think that the exact data representation format for arbitrary OID is
normally provided by MIB. Since there is no MIB compiler bundled with
pysnmp at the moment, there seems to be no universal way to handle that.

Once you know the complete set of OIDs you are going to use in your
particular application, a workaround would be to hardcode values
representation rules based on OID, that is what John suggested.

To figure out the representation format for particular data type --
consult appropriate MIB.
