I can't answer for pyminc but see you don't have an answer yet the
pyminc types so in the meantime this might work for you as a hack
solution via a system() call. From the command line you would do this:

   mincinfo -varvalue time out.mnc

This will return a newline separated vector, providing that

   mincinfo -attvalue time:spacing out.mnc

returns 'irregular'.
