Try SPSS Software. They have scads of programs to do just that. You can even get one that displays "live" data over Internet or in presentations. They can present complex data in almost any way that you would need. I was impressed, at least.

Subject: graphics software
Hello All:
My boss has asked me to identify the best graphic software tool to
accomplish the task of representing very complex quantitative and
statistical data in a variety of user friendly ways. The jobs will be
primarily hard copy for the time being, but may migrate towards intranet
graphics in the future. Any suggestions or shared experiences in this area
would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance . . .
