No, not asking much at all. Some folks here have given you good hosts to move to. Look into them. I personally like serverbeach and phatservers, but that may just be me and my experiences with them.
That being said, apache and mysql out of the gate need to be tweaked some for maximum love, but I don't think either should fall over at that traffic level.
When you say 'down' what do you mean? have you looked at the logs to see if there is any detail there?
Can/will you post them?
And, not to be a dick, but you writing your sql queries doesn't make you an expert. If you have huge non indexed tables and you're doing a SELECT * FROM whatever and munging the return...yeah, you could have problems.
