How about:

numpy.fromfile(filename, dtype='>i2')

numpy.core.records.fromfile (filename, formats='i2', byteorder='big')['f0']

With numpy.core.records, you create a record array. Just get the field ('f0' 
by default) to get a ndarray.

(I'm sure there's a simpler way, but that should do it for now).
