I've twiddled with the source and have its output go to a .csv. Basically, I've done what you want to do, except with Oracle. The plan then is to cron (or within Oracle - use the db scheduler) a job that copies the data into the database - then at certain times delete down the .csv file so that you're not continually rejecting records already in the db. I have implemented this with Oracle - need to do a bit of work - but it's part of what I believe *_should_* be easy - i.e. put basic system metrics directly into a database so that such data can be analysed over a long period, rather than "Oh, what did iostat say yesterday?". When I have it fully working with Oracle (XE 10), I plan to get it working with SQLite - it should be reasonably easy using .csv and cron jobs.
