We do not use a database. Instead we store reports (meaning the output of
/usr/sbin/popularity-contest) as they are received, keeping exactly one
by HOSTID (see /etc/popularity-contest.conf).
The amount of data stored is about 10GB. We update 1/7th of that everyday.

Well, there might be people on this list with more experience than me in
datamining popcon.
