That should help:

Code:

bus = dbus.SystemBus()

bluez = bus.get_object('org.bluez', '/')
adapter_path = bluez.ListAdapters(
    dbus_interface='org.bluez.Manager')[0]
adapter = bus.get_object('org.bluez', adapter_path)
powered = adapter.GetProperties(
    dbus_interface='org.bluez.Adapter')['Powered']

if powered:
    print 'Bluetooth on'
else:
    print 'Bluetooth off'

You need to install (using apt-get install as root) the following packages: python python-dbus
