I’ve discovered VB2Py, but it’s been silent for almost 5 years. Are there any other tools out there which could be used to convert VB6 projects to Python, Ruby, Tcl, whatever?

Compile the VB code either into a normal DLL or a COM DLL. All Pythons on Windows, including the vanilla ActivePython distribution (IronPython isn’t required) can connect to both types of DLLs.
I think this is your best option. As Gustavo said, finding something that will compile arbitrary VB6 code into Python sounds like an unachievable dream.
