A very fast look on CPAN reveals Math::Combinatorics

Despite the low version number, it looks as though it does what you want, and if it doesn't the source code is probably a good starting point to modify to do it.

IIRC a lot of advice round here advises Googling and checking CPAN, because it's probably been asked before :-).
