As Andrew mentioned, there's the possibility of wrapping before vacuum
finishes. Other than that, there's no danger to continuing to use the
db while it's being vacuumed.
There was a post here a little while back that had a query that would
show you how many transactions you had until wraparound and which
databases had been vacuumed when...
The basic data is in pg_database. Take a look at that table.
