I created such a patch last spring during the Django sprint at PyCon. The basic interface was very straightforward but there was also a slightly less straightforward interface option that allowed for grouping and so forth. The patch was discarded, however, since some of the core Django developers wanted to chime in on the interface design for aggregate functions, but felt they didn't have time to do so until after 0.95 was complete.
Rather than fight for my design (which I was not particularly passionate about anyway), I just went home and used plain old SQL when I needed aggregates. (I also learned about data bubbles and redesigned my tables to include them as necessary. This redesign eliminated almost all of my needs for an aggregate function interface.) I am still interested in this topic, but I haven't had the personal bandwidth to stay on top of the Django Developer's group. It would be nice to know what, if anything, is happening along these lines. I might even be willing to spend some time on this during the holidays.
