Because it's "piechart". ?piechart will tell you about it.
help.search("pie") would have found it for you.
[Obligatory comment on what you *should* do, from the documentation:
Note:
Pie charts are a very bad way of displaying information. The eye
is good at judging linear measures and bad at judging relative
areas.
A bar chart or dot chart is a preferable way of displaying this
type of data.

good luck,
Ben Bolker
