I did, and it only worked after doing a "cpan SVG::Graph" to install the Perl Module.

But how about this other approach: Write only the data using perl, creating an html that uses javascript libraries http://webdesignledger.com/resources/13-useful-javascript-solutions-for-charts-and-graphs to further generate the image. I used flot succesfully in the past. This way, perl only writes the html and the javascript library takes care of the plotting

Then there is "use Image::Magick;" to create a surface and plot your points by hand, then save the graphics file, there was this node... create PNG image

Then there is this inline graphics, I do no recommend it for this type of job: http://www.websiteoptimization.com/speed/tweak/inline-images/

And somewhere on the web there is this table which are 1x1 pixels big, and basically, the table looks like a mspaint canvas at that size. Also not recommended, but it works.
