Ha ha .... ha! You think I didn't try Google? :p
I did find a few, but they required registring to some site. Blech! And even when I did, I didn't get an email for at least an hour. Actually, I stopped looking after that. I gave them my spam account anyway. ;)
When I tried using different key words I finally found some. I think the words were: Ajax, currency and converter. Pain in the ass trying to find somethings. :(
But I did find it. Thanks.

Ermmm. What currencies are you trying to convert?
Do you need them updated in real time?
I bet I could whip something up real fast.

HA-HA! (bully from the Simpsons) ;)
I've not tried it, but I would like it to convert all different types. Apperently, the one I've got and am still looking at will download a csv file from yahoo's finantial pages and then it will be able to convert and update using AJAX.
I'm still trying to get it to work. :(

You could do the same thing with mine: use fopen and fgetcsv to read the CSV file, and write the data to an associative array. Take the input currency, convert to a standard medium, and convert to your output currency.
I like the associative array method better, as it is easier to use: you don't need to keep track of every currency's exchange rate with every other currency (an n squared problem). Instead you keep track of every currency in relation to a base (in my case, dollars) and do all conversions with that.
The basic algorithm would be:
(source amount) / (source rate) * (currency rate)
