maybe this can help :

Get-SPSite http://yourwabapp/sites/sitecol | Get-SPWeb | Where-Object  { $_.ParentWeb -Ne $null } | ForEach-Object { Export-SPWeb -Identity $_ -Path $_.ID }

you will need to adjust the export params according your needs

great thanks this works, is there a way to make it a single export or does it need to export each subsite individually? – Adonis L Jun 29 '11 at 11:24
I would need to import the sites as well as there are a lot, i would like to do it with a single import command – Adonis L Jun 29 '11 at 11:32
Just loop through the exported sites using PowerShell, and import each one. Something like dir $folderpath | For-Each {Import-SPWeb -Path $_.FullName -(Additional import parameters...) – tarjeieo Jun 29 '11 at 12:34
