The charts are generated on-demand by Graphite, which is a Django app.
I will note that one reason I chose StatsD is because it sends the stats via UDP rather than TCP, which is a non-blocking operation. I didn't want the sending of stats to affect the node's performance.

I'm assuming that you would not want to build any of that processing into Bitcoin Core itself; would you be opposed to packaging other software along with the installer?
