While waiting for someone to actually implement this, the following
snippet (untested) might be useful:

$link = dbx_connect(DBX_MYSQL, "localhost", "db", "username",
"password");
$result = dbx_query($link, "DELETE FROM table WHERE name=''");
echo mysql_affected_rows($link->handle);

Description:
------------
It would be very useful (to me at least) if the dbx 
module included a function for returning the number of 
rows affected by an INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statement.

Implementation suggestion: the function DBX_QUERY could
call the relevant database-specific function after an
update/insert/delete and save the result in the link
identifier object. A new function DBX_NUM_AFFECTED_ROWS
would retrieve this saved value from the link 
identifier.

Possibly a select query would cause the 
'num_affected_rows' value to be set to 0, for neatness.
