In Rhythmbox the data structure that stores a "track list" is called
rhythmdb.QueryModel (which implements gtk.TreeModel). You can get it
from the source with "source.props.query_model"

If for example you want to iterate over the entries in a source, you can
do:

    for row in source.props.query_model:
        entry = row[0]
        print db.entry_get(entry, rhythmdb.PROP_TITLE)


Feel free to ask more detailed questions if you can't get what you want
to do working.
