How about using XmlHttpRequest to POST to a PHP page. In turn, the PHP page communicates with
mySQL. This is sometimes how people implement update.rdf: when an extension requests
http://foo.com/update.rdf to check for newer versions of itself, update.rdf is dynamically
generated out of a database from server-side code (the IP address of the requesting client can
also be inserted into the DB).
