a=12345678901
len(`a`) returns 12.

notice that the the length of a numeric value after 10
digits is actually + 1

12345678901 is a long integer; `x` and repr(x) of long 
integers includes the trailing "L":

>>> a = 12345678901
>>> print repr(a)
12345678901L

to get just the digits, use str(x).  see the docs for more 
information on long integers and repr vs. str.
