Would you like to compare two communities, or to compare two community 
structures as a whole? For the latter, we have a function called 
compare_communities, which implements several distance/similarity metrics on 
VertexClustering objects.

If you wish to compare two given communities only, are they from the same 
clustering of the same graph (i.e. are they disjoint) or are they from 
different clusterings of the same graph?

Best,
Tamas
