Take a look at http://pgestraier.projects.postgresql.org/

While it isn't support for Xapian, I think that pgestraier might help to
get you stared. I might try to offer some help (time permiting) because
I would love to see Xapian support for PostgreSQL.

Another posibility would be to use one of embeded languages in
PostgreSQL, but I did try to use perl back in early 8.0-beta days, and
got stuck with numerous problems, so I wrote functions in C. Things
might be easier now.
