   A small C program could act as a daemon that feeds instructions to
   GNUPLOT through a pipe, but the daemon could be accessed through a
   socket.

This sounds like a good idea to me.  There is no need for C, however
(presuming high performance is not a requirement); Guile has all the
facilities for writing (proxy or otherwise) daemons.  For example, sizzweb:

http://www.gnuvola.org/software/ttn-do/ttn-do.html.gz#sizzweb

can listen on a TCP port or a Unix-domain socket (but not both, by design,
i.e., not a limitation of Guile).
