This isn’t the best way to design that API, because what you’re asking for is the use of eval(), and you don’t really want that because eval() is evil and coding an application around eval isn’t safe.

The better approach would be this:

def myobject_cache(key, query, time):

   data = cache.get(key)
   if data:
      return data
  else:
      result = list(CustomObjectThatHoldsLotsOfQuerySets.get(query))
      cache.set(key, result, time)
      return result

class CustomObjectThatHoldsLotsOfQuerySets(object):
    def get(key):
        if key == "MyObject":
            return MyObject.objects.filter(x=y)
        #do other stuff here
