short:
You can't call python module from lua.

Long:

For lua there is two "types" of shared libraries you can want to load:

1) lua modules.
It is how you load your mentioned module in python.
They should contain `luaopen_<LIBNAME>` entry point (function), which is 
called by interpreter on load.

2) FFI.
For example, LuaJIT allows you to load (like `dl()`) any shared library, and 
call functions from there, like you would do when writing code in C.

AFAIRC, there was a module providing something like that for PUC-Rio Lua too.
