I've always modelled graphs in such a way that I _pushed_ the "bar"
slowly into position. Either from the top, bottom, left, or right. Just
give the bar plenty of length, and make the "growth axis" opaque, so the
excess length of the bar is invisible to the camera. Then keyframe the
motion, so the bar appears to "grow" into position.
Hope this isn't as clear as mud...
