SQLite *is* a lightweight database; it doesn't have a server and its
code is compiled into the application. I use it in my (PHP-based)
application, and it's perfectly adequate (also any question of a "limit
to the number of database queries that can be issued" doesn't arise).

It can be considered essentially as a replacement for fopen/fclose,
fread/fwrite.
