Found a faster method:

$ python -m timeit -s "from random import getrandbits" "not getrandbits(1)"
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.222 usec per loop
$ python -m timeit -s "from random import random" "True if random() > 0.5 else False"
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.0786 usec per loop
$ python -m timeit -s "from random import random" "random() > 0.5"
10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.0579 usec per loop
