I would like to create a Python script using the Python SDK to initially start a saved realtime search which basically counts events, and then poll it every 5 seconds for updated results. Is this possible?

Do you have the Python SDK? Have a look at the SDK's examples directory, for stail.py. it shows an example of a real-time search that may answer your question.
