script: iTunesAlarmClock.py

after spoonboy borrowed my alarm clock, i got to using the neat alarm clock plugin for xmms on my linux box to wake me up. but lately, i've been using my windows box a lot which has itunes. i found references to a couple applescripts to provide alarm clock functionality for mac itunes. with the recent release of itunes 4.5 for windows and a com interface, i decided to write something similar in python for windows.
