Get number of idle CPU counts in python windows

In multi-threading programming, wanted to start threads only according to number to idle CPUs available.

How can I get number of idle CPUs in python windows.

In linux 

import os
os.getloadavg()

seems helpful.

Is that anyway to get in python on windows env ?

Thanks in advance.

This works for python with a version >= 2.6

import multiprocessing

multiprocessing.cpu_count()
