Not that I know of, but perhaps you can get a low enough level of access 
  using the win32com and win32api modules.  Or perhaps ctypes.  In other 
words if you can find the window handle of the IE window, or even the 
handles of the scrollbars, then you can call the raw win32 API functions 
using those handles and get what you need.
