There is a library in "contrib" called "intagg." I wrote it a few years
ago, and I have to laugh at the README file because I must have been
stoned or something, because I can't understand it.

Anyways, if you want to make an aggregate function, it covers what you
need. Feel free to ignore the array stuff, because you probably won't need
to deal with it.

Aggregates have basically two functions, a single function called on every
iteration of the "query" (or GROUP BY) for "state." Then there is a
function that is called at the end called "final." The PostgreSQL docs are
pretty good as well.
