I've tried to use surveymonkey.com with Lynx (and Dillo) and have
had trouble with it requiring JavaScript.  I find that odd given
that it seems to just be basic HTML form-filling...nothing that
couldn't be duplicated server-side.

Depending on the nature of your need (a 3rd-party hosted survey
vs. an in-house hosted survey), there are several PHP/Python/Perl
scripts that allow you to host your own survey for free and
adjust them to meet your needs.  A couple that come to mind:


PHP Survey software:

  PHP-Surveyor: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsurveyor/
  which became
  Lime Survey:  http://www.limesurvey.org/

  UCCASS:  http://sourceforge.net/projects/uccass/

  and this which I found but isn't free software
  http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/73590.html

Python:
  writing one from scratch in Django would be pretty easy
  http://djangoproject.com

Perl

Hope this gives you some alternatives to consider.
