It seems as if they only search Expedia, judging by the graph's label at the top. Even still, it's missing many cheap and budget airlines.

Whilst I commend them for letting me search over a period of time using natural language, I'd rather spend the time searching individual days on a search engine that has more sources.

Not just Expedia at all.

The progress indicator above the calendar chart shows that we hit Expedia, Cheapoair and Adioso's own Wingtip engine.

Wingtip has most low-cost airlines across most of the world. See http://adioso.com/help/coverage

+1 for Ryanair (even though they are an awful company). You are also missing norwegian which pretty much is the go-to budget airline for anyone living in the Nordics/Scandanvaia (& Baltics).
No RyanAir is a bit of a problem, and I'm failing to get EasyJet results to show on some routes (e.g. LGW-TLL)
Cheap ones from Mexico: Vivaerobus, Volaris and Interjet are missing too.
