Very good!

We have a potential term which should be appropriate for this use:
probDistPot, which is probably best set up using probDistPotTools. The
only example of its use currently distributed is in
python/tests/probDistTest.py in the Xplor-NIH distribution. This term
takes an AtomDensity object
(http://nmr.cit.nih.gov/xplor-nih/doc/current/python/ref/atomDensity.html)

which should be able to read in CCP4-formatted maps.

Now, we have never used the term for this exact purpose, so there may
be bugs. Moreover, this functionality is not particularly well
organized or documented. In short, this will likely require a bit of
work, which I would gladly provide.

best regards--
Charles
