Oh yes, This is from where I filled up a dummy config file initially.
I also wanted to know the wisdom of keeping this data as a python
dictionary instead of a config file. I am assuming this is so because
there are only few data points.

I am referring to:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=teammetrics/teammetrics.git;a=blob;f=upload_history.py;h=d86277b97bdac166fa58b5db6ac02ca01c42512c;hb=70d05b3e18b567c44c80d5f1bbfbbb3b8191e23f#l10

I just wanted to know if the data in the above python dictionary could
be retrieved from the database so that keeping this data in code could
be avoided.

Yes, I have gone through this file. I am using this to retrieve the
bugs and uploads data. This part is *completely* done. the only work I
have to do now is the get the data as in the above URL. Either it
could be added in the config file or it could be retrieved from code
or it could be kept in the code itself as in the above URL. Keeping
that in code does not seem appropriate to me.

So I'll do one thing, I'll move this data to the config file in
web/config/metrics.conf and read it from there.
