I suppose you could also use "doscript" to provide a layer of abstraction to your database. That is, write a VB and an AS version that retrieves your data (depending on the platform) and then do your InDesign actions with the results in JS... Edit: Can you actually feed data in as arguments to doscript somehow? I've never really played with it.
