A while back I did this as an experiment to see where users were looking
on my server, so I grabbed the BBOX info from the apache logs for all
map requests and inserted them into PostGIS, then set up a layer (in
GeoMoose) to view them on top of my basemap. Worked like a charm,
never automated it, but it would be easy to do it. You would also
likely want to limit the total number of polygons i the database to
something sane, or over time you would swamp the database with data.
Your question was a bit vague on how much detail you were looking for.
I don't know you level of experience either. I used PERL to load the DB
and MapServer/GeoMoose to handle the display aspects.

Thanks for the reply...
Now i wanna know if this is a sane idea... I wanna
construct and save the Geometry of polygons/rectangles from BBOX coodinates
in POSTGIS and When pass on a query I wanna retrieve those rectangles and
overlay them on the mapserver basemap dynamically.....
Plz do comment on this......!!@
