also you can use xmlreader and read dumps of wikidata.

Hi, no to my knowledge it is not possible with
pywikibot because
Wikidata itself cannot do that atm (it will be possible when simple
queries will be on line on Wikidata) but it is possible using another
service like wdq, from Magnus Manske:
http://wikidata-wdq-mm.instance-proxy.wmflabs.org/
True. However, as P214 is a property with string type, you cannont use
the neat query-click interface but have to use the API of WikidataQuery.
For your problem, this would be
http://wikidata-wdq-mm.instance-proxy.wmflabs.org/api?q=string[214
:"5726988"]
giving the resulting item list [3300924].
If you additionally want to modify the resulting items with pywikibot:
A page generator for pywikibot which takes such query strings and work
on the resulting item list is currently under review:

Hi.
Need some help from someone familiar with wikidata.
Is there a way with pywikibot to find out, given a certain
value for a Property, which Item has that particular
Property value?
Better with a practical case.
Given P214 (VIAF data), I want to know who has P214 set to
5726988.
E.g.: how to find out that Item
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3300924 has P214=5726988?
Thanks for your help.
Bye
Mpaa
