Estoy tratando de ejecutar un script ETL usando python y MySQLdb pero estoy atascado con los resultados de mi consulta de extracción inicial. Los tipos devueltos son todos Long y Decimal cuando quiero Int y Float. He buscado por algunas horas tratando de obtener una respuesta a esto sin ningún éxito.

database = MySQLdb.connect(host='db',user='user',
                       passwd='password', db='db123')

database_cursor = database.cursor()

database_query = ("SELECT id, siteId, campaignId, hour, sum(impressions) AS impressions, "
"sum(clicks) AS clicks, sum(conversions) AS conversions, sum(costs/1000000) AS revenue "
"FROM database.DM_PublisherFact_Hourly WHERE time = '%s' GROUP BY siteId, campaignId;") %(today)

print database_query

database_cursor.execute(database_query)
result = database_cursor.fetchone()

database.close()

El valor de retorno es una tupla de Longs y Decimals. Intenté pasar explícitamente el diccionario de conversiones al objeto de conexión, pero no tuve suerte allí. ¿Alguna ayuda?

Aquí está el código de conversiones

"""MySQLdb type conversion module

This module handles all the type conversions for MySQL. If the default
type conversions aren't what you need, you can make your own. The
dictionary conversions maps some kind of type to a conversion function
which returns the corresponding value:

Key: FIELD_TYPE.* (from MySQLdb.constants)

Conversion function:

Arguments: string

Returns: Python object

Key: Python type object (from types) or class

Conversion function:

Arguments: Python object of indicated type or class AND 
           conversion dictionary

Returns: SQL literal value

Notes: Most conversion functions can ignore the dictionary, but
       it is a required parameter. It is necessary for converting
       things like sequences and instances.

Don't modify conversions if you can avoid it. Instead, make copies
(with the copy() method), modify the copies, and then pass them to
MySQL.connect().
