How about the following?

BEGIN ;

CREATE TABLE z (
  the_date   date not null
 ,value      integer not null
) ;

INSERT INTO z VALUES('2009-09-19',1) ;
INSERT INTO z VALUES('2009-09-20',2) ;
INSERT INTO z VALUES('2009-09-21',6) ;
INSERT INTO z VALUES('2009-09-22',9) ;
INSERT INTO z VALUES('2009-09-23',1) ;

SELECT z.the_date, SUM(z2.value)
  FROM z
       LEFT JOIN z z2
               ON z2.the_date IN (
              z.the_date
             ,z.the_date-'1 day'::interval
             ,z.the_date-'2 day'::interval
             )
 GROUP BY 1
 ORDER BY 1
;

ROLLBACK ;

output:

  the_date  | sum
------------+-----
 2009-09-19 |   1
 2009-09-20 |   3
 2009-09-21 |   9
 2009-09-22 |  17
 2009-09-23 |  16
(5 rows)
