I don't know if it's too much for a posting but, i 've just build a module under mod_perl to do just that, i call whenever i need a pie chart. You call it like this:
First you put a handler in httpd.conf:
--------------------------------------
<Files grafico>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler UB::Grafico
</Files>
The calling url is:
-------------------
http://www.ubpf.cl:8080/grafico?labels=e,c,b;values=1,3,3;title=
the module is:
--------------
package UB::Grafico;
use Apache::Constants qw/OK/;
use CGI ':standard';
use GD::Graph::pie;
use strict;
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
$r->no_cache(1);
my @labels = split /,/, param("labels");
my @values = split /,/, param("values");
# Both the arrays should same number of entries.
my @data = ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]);
my $mygraph = GD::Graph::pie->new(80, 80);
$mygraph->set(
title => param("title"),
'3d' => 1,
) or warn $mygraph->error;
$mygraph->set_title_font(GD::gdTinyFont);
$mygraph->set_value_font(GD::gdTinyFont);
$mygraph->set(dclrs => [ qw(yellow red cyan) ] );
my $myimage = $mygraph->plot([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or die $mygraph->error;
$r->send_http_header("image/png");
print $myimage->png;
return OK;
}
1;
Good Luck

El problema de fondo es diseñar soluciones elegantes e inteligentes, las
herramientas sólo son las herramientas.
