I maintain a series of sites with free TS econometric data at http://www.decisionstats.com/?p=56 and here

http://www.decisionstats.com/?m=200712

Hope that helps. Ideally central bank websites also help with latest numbers for developing world, and can be verified with the other data here.

Regards,
