You'll probably need to get something like gnuplot.py:
http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/
There's a demo file inside of the package that will show you how to get started.

You might need to use something like, too:

        import Gnuplot
        Gnuplot.GnuplotOpts.gnuplot_command =
'/Applications/Gnuplot.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnuplot'

If you're interested in using gnuplot on it's own, I maintain an open
source bundle for TextMate which you might find useful:

I hope this helps,

Matt
