How to make a "bucky ball" (Fullerene) ?

Do you guys know how to make a "bucky ball", with, say, about 80 faces or more ?

I'm not talking about the dodecaedron or icosaedron in Cheetah's menu. They don't have enough faces.
 
Hi,
I think the "bucky ball" is a truncated icosahedron (soccer ball).

There exists a complete zoo of these typs of geometry but I can't support them all. This would be a classical job for a Javascript. It should be already possible to write such a script even without the Javascript API documentation. All commands you need can be found in the Menger.js example script.
