Please provide some specifics.  It's been a very long time since the
planner was completely unaware of the size of such a table.  Lack of
stats is certainly a handicap, but I'm not convinced it should result
in horrible plans.  Maybe a more appropriate answer to this type of
issue is to tweak some of the default selectivity numbers.

Autovacuum already does this type of thing.
