Processing is reasonably powerful, and has also been implemented in javascript.

I'm currently using .png files created in Photoshop that I stretch via the width element to the desired size based on a variable.
I have some data I'd like to plot using a line graph but I haven't liked what I saw so far. Google has an option but they have some weird size restrictions.
I also found this http://www.r-project.org which seems a bit much for what I want but I may end up having a back end script that generates an image from a data set.
I'm hoping people much smarter than I have a better idea.
