If you create a table with:

CREATE TABLE comp
(
  result1 : hstore,
  result2 : hstore
);

insert in it the rows from selects:

INSERT INTO comp(result1, result2)
  (SELECT * FROM table1, SELECT * FROM table2);

Substitute (SELECT * FROM table, SELECT * FROM table2) with your queries, store 
the result of the queries on table1 and table2 tables or use a WITH in the 
INSERT.

you can get the differences between both queries using '-' hstore operator:

SELECT (result1 - result2) as LEFT, (result2 - result1) as RIGHT FROM comp;

Or simulating an equal instruction:

SELECT (COUNT(result1 - result2)+COUNT(result2 - result1)=0) FROM comp; -- Not 
sure about this one because uses COUNT on a hstore data column.
