I know this won't help you in recovering your lost data; but for the
future it may be helpful to log into your MySQL instance and use
mysqldump to export your database to a .sql file to be used for later in
case recovery is needed. It's much less time consuming and less tedious
than saving individual IARs and OARs. I usually do just this for
periodic backup. But I do recommend taking the time to also do IARs and
OARs of the important stuff for the sake of having that one extra backup
just in case; every once in a while =)
Just a thought but hope it helps!

Well. I guess that settles that. I hadn't actually done any
configuration for the database in OpenSim, and no .db files are to be
found.
I actually was (mostly) joking about backups, so really all I lost is
basically the last three months of my avatar inventory. *Most*
everything on the sims are backed up on .oar files, so not much lost
there. A couple of medium-sized projects will need to be redone. It's
just a personal working space, so nobody else was affected, thank
goodness.
I tried a free data recovery program, and nothing it came up with was
of any use. Also digging around forums & whathaveyou online it sounds
like once a database has become that far disconnected from it's roots
it's pretty much a total write-off, or at least not worth the effort
to me at this point.
Oh well, now I know for next time. Nothing I can't replace - at least,
nothing I've remembered yet! Thanks for the help guys!
