Try: select LAST_INSERT_ID()+0 to cast it to an int...

Also, check your declaration for LAST_INSERT_ID().. if the above doesn't
work you'll need to either try the patch for ZMySQLDA that was posted a
week or so ago, or do something like: SELECT CONCAT(LAST_INSERT_ID()) to
cast it to a string and then use a nifty Python fn. to convert it to an
integer number. 

It seems the MySQL driver has problems with some datatypes.  There was a
patch posted befure.. I'm curious to know if it'll fix this problem...
