The great blog Data Mining points me to Cognos, which has an enterprise search product (taking advantage of Google OneBox) that spits out graphs of data points over time. I would love a function like this on regular Google search. It would be a very useful alternative to the ordered lists of appropriate pages, a good implementation of Google Trends and a perfect answer to Yahoo Answers.
