I use lxml for Windows python a lot. You can find official binaries at: 
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxml/3.2.1
There are also unofficial binaries (which I've also used when pypi 
wasn't updated straight away) to be found at:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

Perhaps you didn't see these two locations, or you are after some 
particular version of the binary for some particular python version that 
is not listed.

I think it will be difficult to build lxml for Windows yourself.
