Thanks. I'm considering CouchDB because I'm familiar with the
document/map-reduce concept. I'm not sure how this counter data will
be used in the future. So I tend to keep a raw log of it. Map-reduce
will allow me to query about just any field.

I used redis for session store, which is strictly a key-value pair.
Redis' incr looks simple. But what if I would like to store raw log,
with time, subject and target? And later on how do I manage to query
by these fields? Sorry for off-topic. I'll redirect this question to
the redis community.
