Wilson Miner of Everyblock fame wrote an article on creating accessible charts using html and css that might be of some use. If you want to generate visualizations and you aren't a coder, then IBM's Many Eyes project is definitely worth checking out.

What kind of charts or visualizations are you looking to create?

If you're looking for an alternative to Google's Charting API, there are a bunch of other JS charting libraries out there. Some good ones are flot, Highcharts and dojo charting.

• http://code.google.com/p/flot/
• http://www.highcharts.com/
• http://www.dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/dojox/charting.html#dojox-charting

There's also Flash of course, which can draw very nice charts.

None of this is Wordpress specific, but it would all be easy to add to a Wordpress site.

I haven't heard of any Wordpress-specific charting tools, but most web-based graphing tools make it easy to embed their visualizations anywhere that accepts HTML, so you might not be completely out of luck: You could simply do your data analysis/charting elsewhere, like Google Fusion Tables or many of the good tools Mark Luckie mentions in his blog.

If it's a more specific project, provide more information and I might be able to provide more suggestions.
