I was thinking the same thing. I use it on my solo games now and keep a browser open to it on my hard drive.
Pros and Cons. I like the numbers but the line-chart gave me a progression which was good to see also. Particularly to notice two nations whose armies seem to go down at the same times (at war with each other maybe).
Maybe both could be offered. Some webby person could save the score.html files to numbered Versions, and show the Last few days on one view. Maybe a next/Last button, or in one table, or multiple days in frames?
There are plenty of free graphing softwares. I could capture the data from that file each turn, and recreate the scoreBoards... but sheesh that seems like more trouble than just doing a screen capture and uploading the jpgs. Maybe someone more at home in that area.... I think I will go add that to the 3rd party apps thread.
