Yes, is you only need one iteration instead of a report loop.
(option -c is available since 2.6.0)

Right.

On a restart all databases in /var/amavisd/db/ are created afresh,
so amavisd-agent reports data from the last amavisd start,
also given in the line like:
  sysUpTime  Timeticks 224672 (0 days, 0:37:26.72)

Actually, if you leave amavisd-agent running in a loop
for a while (2.5 minutes = half of the averaging
interval $avg_int which defaults to 5 minutes),
then the counters column still shows absolute counts,
but the next count-per-hour column starts showing
exact averages for the last $avg_int interval.

No.
Databases are re-created from scratch on every restart,
and practically do not grow during use.
