Just as an aside, since I know this a python for maya group and don't want to derail this into some kind of flame war, but stuff like this is ridiculously easy in Houdini as compared to Maya. Don't know if you're there yet, but at some point, it just becomes easier to say "f*** it" and bite the bullet for certain things and do them in another app. There's a free version, I believe, and the learning curve isn't too bad for relatively simple things like making procedure geo/curves and spitting them out as objs to use in Maya. Check out these guys for some interesting recipes and walkthroughs of stuff that I can't picture doing reasonably in Maya.
