Is there a Python equivalent to MATLAB's pearsrnd function?

I would like to generate random numbers with a given mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis from the Pearson system. I can do this in MATLAB using "pearsrnd" -- does scipy, statsmodels, or any other package have a similar function?

Thanks in advance.

In the new version (scipy >0.12.0), there is one: scipy.stats.pearson3. http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy-0.13.0/reference/generated/scipy.stats.pearson3.html
