You can see an example on the second page of <http://lightolier.com/MKACatpdfs/8011.PDF>. Scroll down. The plot is next to the table titled, "candlepower summary." It's a quadrant rather than a full circle, and it's clipped to a box, but it's still a polar plot.
The only problem I have with what matplotlib does is that it seems determined to put zero at the right, rather than at the bottom. I want to turn the axis 90 degrees.
