I know that the output current of a solar panel does not vary much with temperature for a given solar intensity. But has anyone seen data that correlates solar panel output current with solar intensity all at the same cell temperature?

The current is linear to the irradiance , current actually increases with tempature , by at about 4% of the voltage change decreases

How does output power vary with insolation, given a MPPT interface?

Thanks!

If its done correctly (mppt) it will track to the availble power and as I said before , the available power is linear to the irradiance
