A script is possible for sure. How to write it I do not know. But this is a
way to get your nonlineair scale.

1. Draw the circle

2. Create a tick mark right on top of the circle, use transform etcetara to
position it right.

3. Select the tick mark and option-click with the rotate tool exactly on the
center of the circle.

4. Type -5� in the box and hit copy.

5. Again select the original tick mark and do the same, this time type -7�.

And so on.
