Is there any (free) software which allows hand simulations?
Specifically, I want to count the % of hands of a certain type, under given constraints. Ex: In what fraction of hands will responder have a 4432 distribution, when opener bids 1M (promising at least 5 card M) etc.

I am fond of Hans van Stavern's dealer
There are other good choices

Piotr Beling's calculator has nice easy scripting and stats
Edit I apologise for occasional duplicates, sometimes due to edit, and repeat messages. And for bringing down the forums server if I make two requests within around 10 minutes. Not sure if it is per user or I kill it for everyone. Sorry

I use dealer v2, available for free online. It uses the 'dealer' language. Compared to what I've heard other people report it is flexible and high performance. However, it may take a bit to become used to the syntax. I'd be happy to help with this and share my resources on it if you're interested.
