A lot of times my queue will remain empty. But when it does fill up, how does that queue notify my server to execute a python script?
I could make it so that the python script hits the queue every 5 seconds, but that’s silly.

You should have a consumer on the queue, which registers a callback. The consumer will then poll the queue and call the callback when an item is received.
You don’t say how you’re accessing the queue, but a library like carrot does this for you.
