Unfortunately, not.  Maybe we should create one.

Since that question is the most frequently asked, I think it would be on top
of the list.

DeltaGraph is a nice data-graphing package from DeltaPoint Software.  If you 
want to do some statistical analyses, there are a number of packages
available.  One which looks very nice on paper is Statistica/Mac.  Also, 
there's DataDesk, Systat, JMP, SAS, SPSS, StatView.  There should be reviews 
of most of these products in recent issues of the big magazines.
