Flare [Flash]
Flare is an ActionScript library for creating visualizations that run in the Adobe Flash Player. From basic charts and graphs to complex interactive graphics, the toolkit supports data management, visual encoding, animation, and interaction techniques. Even better, flare features a modular design that lets developers create customized visualization techniques without having to reinvent the wheel.

Flare is open-source software released under a BSD license, meaning it can be freely deployed and modified (and even sold for $$). Flare’s design was adapted from its predecessor prefuse, a visualization toolkit for Java.
Well-Formed Eigenfactor [Flash] is a good example how Flare can be utilised.
