        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            value = new Dictionary();
            for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
                value.Add(i, 10 * i);

            Chart chart = this.FindName("MyWinformChart") as Chart;
            chart.DataSource = value;
            chart.Series["series"].XValueMember = "Key";
            chart.Series["series"].YValueMembers = "Value";
        }
    }
}

MainWindow.xaml

making sure you have references to:

%ProgramFiles%\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework\v4.0\Profile\Client\WindowsFormsIntegration.dll

%ProgramFiles%\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework\v4.0\Profile\Client\System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.dll

%ProgramFiles%\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework\v4.0\Profile\Client\System.Windows.Forms.dll
