You shouldn't need ANY bandwidth for the SQL server. It's just
LAN stuff, not really expensive to transfer data 2 feet. If the data
had to cross the country for every query then of course you'd
need bandwidth, but on the LAN... I don't see why any ISP
should charge for LAN bandwidth.....

btw make sure you lock down the SQL server to only accept
connections from the web server.

Also look into pre-generated static pages. There is no reason to
run a million database queries per day if they can be done with
five queries late at night.
