hope it will do the job (maybe its not the cleanest way, but it works for me sometimes. Depending on the ending of the lists you should wrap or not the shift component.
Good luck…

exact formula is inside /lib/skybright.cal if this can help you to find the name.
{ RCSid: $Id$ } { Sky brightness function for sunny and cloudy skies.
Additional arguments required for calculation of skybright:
A1 - 1 for CIE clear, 2 for CIE overcast, 3 for uniform, 4 for CIE intermediate A2 - zenith brightness A3 - ground plane brightness A4 - normalization factor based on sun direction A5,A6,A7 - sun direction }
cosgamma = Dx*A5 + Dy*A6 + Dz*A7;
gamma = Acos(cosgamma); { angle from sun to this point in sky }
zt = Acos(A7); { angle from zenith to sun }
eta = Acos(Dz); { angle from zenith to this point in sky }
wmean(a, x, b, y) : (a*x + b*y) / (a + b);
skybr = wmean((Dz+1.01)^10, select(A1, sunnysky, cloudysky, unifsky, intersky), (Dz+1.01)^-10, A3);
sunnysky = A2 * (.91 + 10*exp(-3*gamma) + .45*cosgamma*cosgamma) * if( Dz - .01, 1.0 - exp(-.32/Dz), 1.0) / A4;
cloudysky = A2 * (1 + 2*Dz)/3;
unifsky = A2;
intersky = A2 * ( (1.35*sin(5.631-3.59*eta)+3.12)*sin(4.396-2.6*zt) + 6.37 - eta ) / 2.326 * exp(gamma*-.563*((2.629-eta)*(1.562-zt)+.812)) / A4;

This data is then mapped to the "glow" material that represents the celestial hemisphere...You can edit the climate based sky produced by Honeybee and enter your own values. The other option would be to just use gendaylit from DOS Prompt.…
