Given that macports only provdies opencv 1.0 i guess you have
installed opencv 2.0
manually?

The reason you can't import it into python is that you have installed it in the
wrong path. MacPorts never installs into /usr/local, furthermore
Python 2.6 is built as
a framework and therefore won't pick up modules from
${prefix}/lib/python2.6/site-packages,
even if /usr/local would be a valid prefix.

You have to tell the install script of opencv to install the python bindings in
${prefix}/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages
