Yes, all you need to do is create a basic rrd file that covers the
time period the user requests, and fill it with data from your
database.

- create rrd file, see docs
- extract data from sql database, write query
- insert into rrd file, see docs again
- draw graph, see docs
- delete rrd file, "rm ${tempfile}"

All you need to do is write a script that works out suitable start &
end time and performs the steps above.
