You can build for Python 3, but there are some issues which are still to
be resolved (mostly just related to Unicode strings vs bytes) which mean
it's probably not really suitable for mainstream use yet:

http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/346
http://trac.xapian.org/browser/trunk/xapian-bindings/README#L54

If there's software which is actually using the bindings with Python 3, 
I'm happy to try to add a package (even happier to apply patches to do
so...)

Cheers,
