What is the number of queries that it adds to the index page, roughly?

3

Very cool!

I have a suggestion regarding the queries. You should either use a $config variable, the cache functions or even the SQL caching functionality to cache those.

(In all three cases the file cache is used)

Thanks Igor!!

Wouldn't caching hurt the "real time" ability of the mod?

Maybe if I say it this way. If a moderator acts on a reported post, eg, then the cache should be deleted and the sql would run anyway to correct the count of reported whatevers...correct?

I mean this isn't a statistic thing (like HoL's activity stats mod). Hope that made sense.

With the set_config and the manual caching (cache functions) methods you would be able to update/clear cache every time a moderator action is done.

I need help...lots and lots of it.
