The following has some suggestions on things to do when an iPhone is lost: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support
If you didn't back up or sync, there wouldn't be any way to recover the data on your phone -- i.e., no place to recover it from. However, it is possible that you had Settings > iCloud > Backup turned on and it was backing up automatically while it was charging and connected to wi-fi. The following has instructions on how to see if there is an iCloud backup and on how to use it to set up a new iPhone: iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud
Also, if you had syncing turned on some of your data may be available by using a computer and logging in to https://www.icloud.com/
