Hello Brett,

with sip.setapi("QString",2) you gets always an unicode string back, 
witch is a true python object. So there can't be any Qt methods any 
more. This is why your second example fails.
You have two solutions. The one you mentioned or since Python 2.6 the 
new unicode format method:

qApp.translate("test","Internationalize {0}").format(42)

or with named arguments:

qApp.translate("test","Internationalize {my_number}").format(my_number=42)

There are many other options for the format method described in the 
Python documentation.

Tobias
