If your ISP won't allow you to run your script every minute, could you
write a script and run it on your local workstation, and then have
your local workstation either insert it into your MySQL database
directly, or using SOAP or even a PHP script locally on the server to
insert into the db.

Hope this helps;

Solving site load issues with database replication is a lot like
solving your own personal problems with heroin -- at first, it sorta
works, but after a while things just get out of hand.
