It might help immensely to get the necessary background knowledge first.

From your point of view, the Parallella is just another (embedded) Linux system.
As such, your question is not Parallella-specific, and you will probably get more help in other places.

Some points:
Do you know how to build a dynamic webpage on Linux (e.g. through CGI)?
Do you know how your sensor provides its data?
Do you know how microcontroller bus systems (SPI, but especially I²C) work?
Do you know how to read datasheets? If not, learn.

You need to solve your problem on your own.
This doesn't mean that we don't want to help, but I am not interested in solving your problem.

edit: Just to clarify: You need to be more specific in what you actually need help with. "I don't know what to do" just tells us that you need to learn more first.
