Maximo,
Although there might be better options out there, I believe that 
-inequal7- and -ineqdeco- could be used (but it will completely ignore 
intra-group inequality, i.e. assumes piecewise linear Lorenz curve): need 
to specify group sizes as weight. (For -inequal7-, I think you need at 
least about 10 observations in your dataset otherwise you will get an 
error message (but you can always, say, -set obs 20-.)
Hope this helps,
Philippe.
