I'm not aware of any such facility in Postgres
(although I'm a relative newcomer).  However, you can
easily run sql scripts using the psql commandline
tool.  Combined with the cron daemon under *nix (or
the task scheduler in Windows) you should be able to
easily execute these scripts any time you want.
