1) No
2) Yes, definitely

I suspect that the most difficult problem in your case is formalising the 
statistical approach and building a solid statistical model for your data. 
For example: is it possible, at least in principle, that stream A can be 
affected by what happened in stream B _in the past_? In which way?

Once you have a suitable statistical model, writing the code (in C or 
possibly in hansl) to implement estimation and forecasting doesn't seem so 
hard, and (lib)gretl should definitely be up to the job.
