Is it possible to do stacked multiple axis with D3? for eg:

everything is possible with d3!  
while this chart looks misleading to me, in that it suggests I directly compare 3 different lines that are in very different spaces, if you really want to do it you can think of it as drawing 3 different line charts that are positioned one on top of the other.

I’ll go out on a limb and suggest you try out Plot as perhaps a quicker way to get good graphs (and if you want you can extend it with d3)
