Graphics are surely the best way to go. There are (no doubt) fonts with
these characters, but maths typesetting is more than just having the
fonts. If you ever need to do anything more complex than an x-bar (and
I've seen some of the integrals you stats guys do) you will need a
proper maths typesetting engine. Write in latex and convert to html
(tex4ht, latex2html etc). You can prettify the html afterwards.
