I thought about a generator too, but then I thought about the *non* 
verbose case, where you don't care about the intermediate results, only 
the final (number, time_taken) pair.

# function with callback:
number, time_taken = t.autorange()

# generator
number, time_taken = list(t.autorange())[-1]

Which hints that your code snippet is buggy, or at least incomplete:

If verbose is False, you never set number and time_taken. So you need an 
else clause:

    else:
        number, time_taken = results[-1]
