Get IMDB ID from title #4

I check out your python imdb script, and it works nicely also with aka titles :). Is it also possible to get the IMBD ID (like tt0000111)?

Unfortunately, the database files released by IMDb do not include the IMDb ID. I really wish they did, though, they would make many things much easier.

Ah, bummer. I also wanted the same thing. Any idea what else can I use to legally get data using IMDb id?
