why were they originally created? why did they stray from their purpose (except good ol' gandalf!)?
i know saruman saw sauron and was decieved and radagast just liked to screw around with animals.

Are you sure all the Istari strayed from their purpose? Why were the Istari created in the first place? Maybe each of them had their own individual tasks to perform. What do others think?

Well the Istari were sent to Middle-Earth to aid men against in the War of the Ring.
-Saruman went bad so that did them no good.
-Saruman led Alatar and Pallando to the East and came back without them, those two wizards were lost to us.
-Pallando - see Alatar's
-Radagast - we don't really know what happened to him. But he still dwells at the borders of Mirkwood.
-Gandalf is so far the only Istari that completed the mission therefore was allowed to sail back west to Valinor once more.
And well, why were they originally created? As Olorin, and Curumo that is? Hm...I'll have to look that up...

-Radagast - we don't really know what happened to him. But he still dwells at the borders of Mirkwood. "Indeed, of all the Istari, one only remained faithful[Gandalf], and he was the last-comer. For Radagast, the fourth, became enamoured of the many beasts and birds that dwelt in Middle-earth, and forsook Elves and Men, and spent his days among the wild creatures." (UT, p. 390)
