Interesting!! It is not as hard is you might think though.
You need a spiral toolpath with axis conversion through a point. I have done an example that assumes you know how to draw in Alphacam but let me know if you need help with drawing the sphere and geometries.

Then there is a few adjustments and fine tuning to make like adding retractions for the C axis to unwind the limits, this is only needed on the top toolpath though. Rapids manager could be handy for orientating from plane to plane without crashing through the part!

Have fun!
