is sampling audio input possible?

I'd like to be able to sample and display both amplitude and frequency domain representations of audio input from an audio 
source.

Is it possible to get a buffer with amplitude data for an audio source with the Web Audio API?

The goal is an educational application on the science of sound. We have done this in the past with a Java applet or webstart 
approach ... but there are all sorts of trouble updating and maintaining these.

Example of a Java Web Start sound grapher:
