Brad Chapman has written a Galaxy tool for converting BAM to BigWig,
called "Calculates coverage from a BAM alignment file". This is available
from the Galaxy Tool Shed http://community.g2.bx.psu.edu/ if you have
your own local install of Galaxy. It uses a Python script (which can be
run easily outside Galaxy) which converts from BAM to Wiggle, and then
calls the wigToBigWig tool from UCSC to convert this to a BigWig file.
