I have a database with a date field in this format
20041016
I'd like to count how many records were made on each day (except today) 
and average them. Can I do this in one query or will I need to do some 
more PHP stuff after I get some results? Thanks.

Bare bones so far:
$sql = "select date1 from $table_name where date1 != '$today'";
[/snip]

a. Is a SQL question
2. One query - "SELECT (COUNT(date1)/COUNT(DISTINCT(date1))) AS average
FROM $table_name where date1 != '$today'";
