Call me old fashioned, but a simple table seems like the way to go here because that's what a table does: present data. You can make complex relations between data much clearer and accessible by using a properly marked-up table. 456 Berea Street had a good post on it recently: http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200410/bring_on_the_tables/ Although I must admit Mr. Brown's markup http://www.tbrown.org/ideas/tabularlist/ adventure was pretty interesting to check out!
