I'm currently using django-haystack to wrap Xapian. django-haystack actually wraps xapian-haystack.
I might reconsider this because I'm not getting the most out of django-haystack because so much of my work has been to patch and subclass django-haystack in various forms because I'm not using Django's ORM.
I will take a closer look at xappy as it might actually simplify the stack in this project.

I normally use xappy for xapian stuff, it makes it a lot easier, or at least I look at the source code if there is something that is bugging me. i.e http://code.google.com/p/xappy/source/browse/trunk/xappy/indexerconnection.py"
The makers of it also make xapian core, so xappy has got best use practices in it.
