Inserting the result of a BLAST into a Database using XSLT.

Here is the XML output of a BLAST:

We want to insert that XML file into a database. I wrote the following XSLT stylesheet , it transforms the blast-xml into a set of SQL statements for sqlite3.
xsltproc --novalid blast2sqlite.xsl blast.xml 

create table BlastOutput(
(...)


BEGIN TRANSACTION;

insert into BlastOutput(
 program,
 version,
 reference,
 db,
 query_ID,
 query_def,
 query_len
 )
 values (
  'tblastn',

All in one you can redirect the output to sqlite3.
xsltproc --novalid blast2sqlite.xsl blast.xml |\
 sqlite3 input.db
and query the database:
$ sqlite3 -header -line input.sqlite \
 'select * from Hsp,Hit where Hsp.hit_id=Hit.id limit 2'

          id = 1
      hit_id = 1
         num = 1
   bit_score = 62.3882
       score = 150.0
      evalue = 4.01658e-10
  query_from = 1
    query_to = 30
    hit_from = 250
      hit_to = 339
 query_frame = 0
   hit_frame = 1
    identity = 30
    positive = 30
        gaps = 0
   align_len = 30
        qseq = MERQKRKADIEKGLQFIQSTLPLKQEEYEA
        hseq = MERQKRKADIEKGLQFIQSTLPLKQEEYEA
     midline = MERQKRKADIEKGLQFIQSTLPLKQEEYEA
          id = 1
iteration_id = 1
         num = 1
      hit_id = gi|110624327|dbj|AK225891.1|
         def = Homo sapiens mRNA for zinc finger CCCH-type containing 7B variant, clone: FCC121C02
   accession = AK225891
         len = 1829

          id = 2
      hit_id = 2
         num = 1
   bit_score = 62.3882
       score = 150.0
      evalue = 4.12279e-10
  query_from = 1
    query_to = 30
    hit_from = 105
      hit_to = 194
 query_frame = 0
   hit_frame = 3
    identity = 30
    positive = 30
        gaps = 0
   align_len = 30
        qseq = MERQKRKADIEKGLQFIQSTLPLKQEEYEA
        hseq = MERQKRKADIEKGLQFIQSTLPLKQEEYEA

iteration_id = 1
         num = 2
      hit_id = gi|6176337|gb|AF188530.1|AF188530
         def = Homo sapiens ubiquitous tetratricopeptide containing protein RoXaN mRNA, partial cds
   accession = AF188530
         len = 2398
That's it,
