Try WinRTXamlToolkit.Controls.DataVisualization on NuGet or I think it's home page is here.
WinRT XAML Toolkit
Old Answer:
There are a few charting libraries you can get from NuGet:
Here are my favorites:
Sparrow Chart Sparrow Toolkit Home
amCharts
Quick Charts
I have a easy example of Sparrow Chart xaml here: Simple Charting
And if you're adventurous it's not that difficult to draw a grid and some points/fill with the
<canvas> tag.

I have used Visual Studio 2012 to create a new project based on the "Windows Phone Direct3D with XAML" template. I need two-way communication of variables and functions between the XAML (C#) portion and the DirectX (C++) portion.
I can communicate in the XAML->DirectX direction via the Direct3DBackground (m_d3dBackground) object, which is accessible from MainPage.xaml.cs.
Is it possible to do this in the reverse (DirectX->XAML) direction? Does the Direct3DBackground container have any knowledge of the XAML page it's embedded in?
Alternatively: As a poor man's substitute, can I set up an event on the XAML page that fires on each frame and polls for changes in Direct3DBackground's member variables?
If you are creating a new project, why not try the new interop model on Windows Phone 8.1. WP8.1 has adopted SwapChainBackgroundPanel and SurfaceImageSource, already available to Windows Store apps, so apps can combine DirectX graphics with XAML. This replaces the XAML and Direct3D project templates you use for Windows Phone 8 apps. For information on using XAML and Direct3D together, see DirectX and XAML interop.

I was wondering if you can use Windows 8.1 controls in a Universal Application? Our company has two different tools set purchased which contain a set of tools that I need to utilize in a Windows 10 Universal application that I am developing, mainly gauges and graphs and want to make sure I won't run into any problems. Otherwise I will need to roll my own or find another means.
You can't use the the DevExpress WPF controls neither in WinRT(Win8 XAML) nor in UWP(Win10 Universal App) development because all of these platforms are powered by absolutely different technologies.
If you are talking about the WinRT-development under Windows 8.1 you should use the Windows 8 XAML Controls suite.
IF you are talking about the Universal App developement under brand new Windows 10 you should use the UWP controls suite. AFAIK the DevExpress UWP controls ships in beta status right now.

How can I can draw a simple chart in Windows Phone 8 or 8.1 without using an external library, I want to use C# + XAML code only.
I searched for a free library to do that on Windows Phone 8.1 (universal app) but I couldn't find any. All libraries I've found supported Windows Phone 8 or 7, not Windows Phone 8.1.

It might be able to help you. Telerik has an API that costs money and Google have a free one where you can get Charts through http requests. Check my reply - you might wanna use one of these. My answer is not about drawing it through XAML / C# which can be quite comprehensive.
To Draw it yourself through code you probably wanna create a Custom Control. Here is a few links to get you started:

Using the default tools is very hard, you can use telerik controls, though

Do we have any free chart sdk which works with Metro UI (Windows 8)?
Since there is no native controls available, I was able to port the C# wrapper over Google Charts (http://code.google.com/p/googlechartsharp/) to Metro Library. This wrapper will return the URL of the chart image which you can render on screen.
