Currrently We've received 2 requests for this particular "interface/API" I'm curious to know what or how you'd invision this interface looking? Or functioning? Or another way of asking this is to let me know what sorts of things you are trying to get out of Sawmill?
I would be interested in using sawmill as a web service. It would be nice to be able to pass a query to sawmill over our internal network and have it respond in a timely manner. For example, in the middle of an HTML page made dynamically by PHP, we could have the number of hits last month for a given page, inserted into the middle of a paragraph.
This can be done using mysql, but that is slow and greedy to build large datasets - the internal database is much leaner and faster, but can only be acceses via CLI...

I am told that "it is now possible to send a SSQL query to the Sawmill web server by HTTP, and get back the result table", I am trying to get more details of this, to see if it might be good enough for what you need.
