You need to make a mesh for a sphere at origin (<0,0,0>) of radius 1.
With whatever precision you want.
Then add a scale using the actual radius of the sphere you want to
replace.
And finally use the center of the sphere for an additional translate.

Not specialized, but you might try povray.general where there is more
people.
