The guys from head-fi suggested using the carton tube from toilet paper cut in half. I've used that with my Grado SR 225s to measure different sources and amps at the same volume while playing 0 db 1khz test tones... but maybe it will not be optimal for your needs, it costs nothing to test after all.
Thanks, Snatcher.

Provided the microphone is sealed to the tube and it is kept reasonably short I imagine this would work. I'll give it a try before I try anything more complicated.
