Thanks Vince once again :)

In my configuration work, I found that if I use the weewx-airlink and 
weewx-weatherlink-live extensions together, I get both the AQI and station 
data on the same loop. The author of the weewx-airlink extension is using a 
data service, which updates the LOOP record when the device is polled. 

So in essence, I am going to run the site on a single instance which 
simplifies my configuration :)

Thanks for the code example, I will probably use it for other sensor 
integration outside of the Davis Hardware.
