Hi Michael,
I am using the same version contributed by Martin Backer. I have been in touch 
with him via email as well. He said yesterday that he can help me with it but 
is busy for some time.
This distribution function does not behave properly as can be seen in the 
attached spreadsheet. Check sheet "Rcode&Output" for Pearson Distribution fits 
in comparison to hyperbolic and normal fits on the same sample data.
Regards,
Gaurang

Which implementation of Pearson IV are you using?

If it's trouble with a homebrewed one, you might want to use the p/q
functions here:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/PearsonDS/index.html

Otherwise, you likely will have to share some code for any concrete help.
