If you are running PHP you can check out JpGraph. Not free but not too
expensive either and there are lots of chart options.

Sparklines might be just the ticket - especially for mobile devices. One
implementation is at http://sparkline.org/

Both the above are in PHP so you would need that on your system.

You could do something in JavaScript. gRaphaël is pretty cool:

And RRDtool makes nice graphs of sensor-type data:
