I personally would prefer that there would be choice of CSV-format, XML-format and custom format which would be handled with http://www.php.net/vprintf. This method wouldn't limit query select, and looping through result set could allow any formatting like "# [[User:%2s|%2s]] ({{formatnum:%3s}} edits" for those who doesn't have OpenOffice Calc, Microsoft Excel or similar for parsing CSV-data. Output also should always be displayed "text/plain" (because of bots) and tool should allow GET parameters. I'm not sure how I have time but I would certainly be interested at least participating tool creation (and perhaps maintaining also).

You'd better use the toolserver.namespace table from "sql" server.
