If you are using reStructuredText and install pygal, Nikola has support for rather nice charts
with little effort, and i's even semi-interactive (hover your pointer over the legend!):

Next to the directive, use the chart type you want
Any option you can set in a chart? Use it like :title:
in this example. Syntax on
the value is just like in the pygal examples.
For each data series do it like the line that says Firefox
in this example. The first element
is the label, then comes the data.
Easy, right? Please explore the pygal site for more information, and just
take this example and tweak stuff.
