Check for GigaSoft Pro -- I did a test/evaluation using the VB interface
(but I'm pretty sure they have all common interfaces). It had a decent
set of interfaces and would do the realtime trending or most other as
well.

Look at Programmers Paradise catalog also--they have a whole section on
such addons.

I would also suggest taking at least a look at TecPlot from Amtec
Engineering if you need anything at all associated w/ flow fields,
finite element or similar engineering graphics rather than just simple
XY-plots.
