I'm looking for a command-line utility to run on a Linux platform that can generate some line or bar graphs based on basic data such as number of junk e-mail messages rejected, etc. I do use MRTG to monitor network devices in 5 minute intervals, but I'm interested in automatically generating some graphs based on daily totals instead of constant gauge readings. Perhaps I can adjust interval settings for MRTG (or RRDTOOL) to accomplish this. I don't need anything to generate the data, I can script that, but I'm interested in what others are using to generate graphs like this. For example I may want to have a graph showing total junk messages rejected over the past seven days with one bar (or line point) for each day. This is generally a job for a spreadsheet (i.e. Excel), but I want to automate this so I can view the output on a web interface.
