Have you read about PGQ yet? Some links include:  http://www.pgcon.org/2008/schedule/events/79.en.html
http://kaiv.wordpress.com/2007/10/19/skytools-database-scripting-framework-pgq/
http://skytools.projects.postgresql.org/doc/pgq-admin.html http://skytools.projects.postgresql.org/doc/pgq-sql.html 

If your processing is to be coded in python, the facilities are
provided in the current skytools releases. If your processing is to be
coded in PHP, the facilities exists in the CVS and will get
distributed soon'ish.

If your processing is to be coded in any other language, you need SQL
access and will be able to use the SQL level API directly, which
provides all the "raw" features.

HTH,
