Thinking about my data more and what I am trying to visualize I now think that the spie charts are not appropriate, as they are intended for merging two pie charts based on the same underlying context (e.g. expected proportions vs actual proportions). That being said, I think the polar bar chart example you sent plus the example of how to have a gridded layout of plots will get me what I need. I realize these examples were right there in the gallery, but it helps to have people suggest things sometimes, so thanks again for responding as you did and not (the seemingly typical forum) "RTFM". If what I come up with is different/interesting enough I'll work on submitting it as an example to the matplotlib gallery.
