Asterisk is a telephony Erector Set*. You get to build what you want. All 
the pieces are there.

Easy may not be best. 'Easiest' is the language you know best. Best 
depends on your needs.

A scripting language like PHP may be easiest for you if you know that 
language. A compiled language like C may be best if you want to run a 
bazillion calls per second.

You can execute xxx AGIs written in C in the time it takes to load the 
Perl or PHP interpreter and parse your script.
