Here's a trivial Python program that handles NOTIFY events; it
couldn't get much easier:

#!/usr/local/bin/python

import psycopg
import select

conn = psycopg.connect('dbname=test')
conn.autocommit(1)

curs = conn.cursor()
curs.execute('LISTEN alert')

fd = curs.fileno()

while True:
    select.select([fd], [], [], None)
    curs.execute('SELECT 1')
    print curs.notifies()
