Have not done this myself: you could make a new layer from a SQL view that groups points by proximity and then show this (and not the one with all the points) when you're zoomed out to a particular scale. I'm not sure what the query to make that view would look like ... would definitely need to be an aggregate of more than one postgis function ... I don't know how to write this in SQL, but written out is something like "considering all sets of points that fall within x distance of eachother group each point with the group it falls within that has the maximum members" I would be VERY interested to see this written out in SQL ... maybe do some searching on postgis lists.
