error when python pip install rrdtool on windows 7

问题

I am running windows 7 64 bit, Python v2.7.10 and pip v9.0.1

I tried to install rrdtool but I get an error

    PS C:\Windows\system32> pip install rrdtool
Collecting rrdtool
  Using cached rrdtool-0.1.11.tar.gz
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    test_rrdtool.c

    Error: Unable to compile the binary module. Do you have the rrdtool header and libraries installed?

I ran the installation using admin privileges as well but get the same error.

I need to parse some rrd files using the rrdtool and create graphs but I just cannot install this archive using pip.

I am a newbie with python so I am not sure how to go about this.

I tried to install it using tar.gz file downloaded from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-rrdtool/1.4.7 still got an error
