In addition to Microsoft Charting you can also get good components from

For a different approach than the MS Chart Control or other components would be to use to use the Microsoft Report Viewer control and design a report (locally or via reporting services) that way.

You could write your own Generic Handler (.ashx) that generates an Image of your Bar Chart/Pie Chart as a Bitmap using System.Drawing and saves it to the Response.OutputStream if a) you really want to make life hard for yourself or b) really need to customise the output in detail
Much better to use one of the Controls recommended by the other guys

The Bitmap etc classes are not supported for use on a web server; see the caution block here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.aspx

that only applies to Web and Windows Services, a Generic Handler is simply part of a Web Application. I've never had any issues with this

just read some more related stuff to that and MS class an ASP.Net Web Application as a Service, my bad
