Hi, i stumbled upon a AS2 solution once which I rewrote to AS3.

 

var sides:Number = 6;
var radius:Number = 100;
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.lineStyle(1,0x000000,1);
mc.graphics.moveTo(radius,0);
for (var i:Number = 0; i<=360; i += 360/sides) {
    var radians:Number = i*Math.PI/180;
    var xPos:Number = Math.cos(radians)*radius;
    var yPos:Number = Math.sin(radians)*radius;
    mc.graphics.lineTo(xPos,yPos);
}
mc.x = stage.stageWidth/2;
mc.y = stage.stageHeight/2;
addChild(mc);
