That information is already available: roll your dice, and all 5s and 6s
are successes. All you need to do a diceroller is to have it ask for the
number of dice, and do that many random() calls.

In fact, I have a half-finished Dashboard widget that does just that,
but it needs a lot more work (or possibly a complete restart, because
it's a bit of a mess :)
