DNS query against a specific server using python

socket.gethostbyname sends the DNS resolution query to the DNS server specified by the OS. Is there an easy way to send a query to a *different* server?

I see that twisted.names allows you to do this, but, having all of twisted as dependency to my project when all I need to do is a simple DNS query seems a bit extreme. I also found pydns, but that looks fairly outdated and unmaintained.
