Hi, I'm not entirely sure how to answer your question, as it can be interpreted in two different ways (which have different answers). If, when you say "update the data on the server", you are referring to updating data in your App Engine app, and pulling it into your gadget, it's possible this data is being cached. There are several ways to circumvent these caching mechanisms. The recommended approach would be to set cache headers in your App Engine app, if the data should be public. If the data is private, you should send a signed makeRequest to App Engine from your gadget, which will not be cached. Finally, you can append a cache-busting parameter (foo=some_random_number) to your request URL.
If, instead, you mean that your App Engine app sends updates to appdata within the gadget, there are known delays, but should not be as long as a day. Please let me know if this is what you are seeing.
