My team and I need to work on a project whose bugs are filed in Bugzilla, using Mylyn.

Do you know of any tool or plug-in that provides scrum-inspired burndown charts to Bugzilla or Mylyn?

Hopefully, this tool would be free for commercial usage, but we're not closed to commercial tools.

Update: 4 hours of research allowed me to find very few free tools. Looks like bugzilla isn't popular in agile teams! And obviously, it's not the best fit.

The Songbird project made a really good job of documenting how they customized their Bugzilla instance and developed tools to automatically generate daily reports, including burndown charts. They released their set of tools as ruby open-source code under the MIT license. Very interesting stuff, especially since it comes from a high-profile, important community project.
