My program gets the html of a webpage, i need to select certain data (Which changes daily) and copy them so that i am able to create a graph. They are all integers.
 
http://htmlagilitypack.codeplex.com/ is probably your best bet, it will allow you to parse and extract information from an html page and there are plenty of examples on the site itself.

Be aware that even with a decent tool this is still a fairly error prone and fiddly process, plus you are going to be caught out if the html format used ever changes. In most cases it might be easier to see if the owner of the site in question has a public, documented way of getting to this information.
