I think you have a couple of options.  

You could add a second series which is a bar chart and have a custom
renderer which shows a gradient at the top.

You could use Ely's DataDrawingCanvas and pop a custom object which
contains your gradient behind your series

You could look into a box and whisker chart rather than a line chart.

Hope that gives you some clues
