this last requirement is where the problem is...

is you do a sum() or order by in the select statement you get and error,  for
example;

select distinct on (sessionid) sum(sessiontime) from logs where
name='joeblowuser' and datetime > 1036040400;

ERROR:  Attribute logs.sessionid must be GROUPed or used in an aggregate
function

Same if you have to order by datetime or something...
