HI guys and gals this is probably a simple question but I can't find
the answer directly in the docs for python mechanize.

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mechanize/

Is it possible to retrieve and save a web page data as xml or a csv
file?

Sure, but mechanize only does the first half of the job. You retrieve
the data using mechanize, then use another module for the save-as bit.
ElementTree for XML and csv for, um, for csv are both in the standard
library.
