Look at the 0.1 version (ie the simplest working example) of http://www.ugr.es/~arturogf/applets/software/ which comes with a bonus "writing applets in python" tutorial at http://www.ugr.es/~arturogf/applets/

In particular, this guy has a progressbar (in an eventbox) rather than a textview, but copying that might work for you.

Otherwise, look at deskbar-applet code, although it'll be more complicated.
