Hi,
I don't use ttk myself, but it seems, that the original demo from
Guilherme Polo might contain the functionality you are looking for:
http://code.google.com/p/python-ttk/downloads/list
pyttk-samples-0.1.7.tar.gz
theming.py

in the (top-right) section "Style":  "Themes" (although I see partly
different themes on Windows7 - it's possibly platform dependent).

You may be able to find out the appropriate usage from the source code.

hth,
