Yes I have used it and found it to be fine. It results in "pleasing" 
charts. You might want to be able to script it so that you ensure 
that the viewer is capable of viewing flash files and provide a GD 
alternative for those who are not. The only down-side is that unless 
you pay for a license and the user clicks on the chart, they will be 
wisked away to http://www.maani.us. 

Basically the module produces an XML file that you refer to in the 
html page as an <object> and <embed> tag (use both for cross browser 
compatibility). The docs at http://www.maani.us/charts/index.php 
should give you all the details you need to get it running.


HTH,
Dp.
