A python list is a python datatype. mysql has no equivalent data type to 
a python list. You need to convert your python list into a data element 
or elements that mysql understands.

The way I would do it would be to use a table for downloads list where 
each download was linked to the visitor who had downloaded it.

I'm sure all the future users of your torrent search website will be 
pleased to know just how much unnecessary data you are attempting to 
capture about their torrenting activities. When the CIA and the FBI 
persuade the greek government to let them impound your servers, all your 
users worldwide will have their torrenting history laid out in full, 
which I'm sure will please anyone who wishes to litigate against them.

Note also that Greece is part of the EU and that makes your website 
subject to EU data protection requirements. You have to tell your users 
what data you are collecting and storing, and why you are collecting and 
storing it, and you must destroy the data once it is no longer needed.

As an observation, if you are simply providing a torrent search engine, 
you do not need to log or record anything at all.
