If you want a database backend, you can always try and see if the 
patch I provided recently for Nessus would suit you. If you missed it, 
check it out here:
http://mail.nessus.org/pipermail/nessus-devel/2005-March/msg00000.html

Writing a query tool and report is up to you (and maybe you are better 
off using Tenable's Lightning console if your requirements are 
bigger). But if you do test and use the patch (or write those tools), 
then, by all means, please contribute it back! :-)
