FWIW, another possible option if your data is stored in an RDBMS is 
Postgres with PL/R; see:

As of Postgres 7.4 you can preload and initialize libraries at 
postmaster start, which means that each forked database backend includes 
a fully initialized copy of libR.

If you are interested, there is some information available regarding how 
to use this with PHP to generate online charts here:
