What you want first is a scirpt or program to do the job
that you are trying to do, I would write it in perl but
python, c or even shell is also fine.
the program should be able to do the job without output
to the screen (sdtout or stderr) UNLESS something does
not work (and even then it is best if it sends mail on
error as well (to you).
then just have the program above run by cron.
this is not a postgresql answer, the same woud be true
for any data base or other system on unix (I have assumed
that you are not running on Windows).
