The documentation is wrong here (thanks for pointing that out). The  
object that you get is in fact a VertexDendrogram:

In [1]: g=Graph.GRG(100, 0.2)
In [2]: cl=g.community_fastgreedy()
In [3]: cl.__class__
Out[3]: <class 'igraph.clustering.VertexDendrogram'>

You can even plot the dendrogram if you're lucky and it's not too large:

In [4]: plot(cl)
