I don't know of any way to do what you are looking for here without
aggregate support in the ORM.  The good news is that's on the 1.1 must-have
features list.  The ticket to watch is
http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/3566.  Russell's got the current code
publicly available in a git clone of Django's svn so it's possible to try it
out (if you already use git or are willing to learn it).

Don't know the answer to this one.
