If you are looking for some way to put database info on-line, then look at VbsDb. www.vbsdb.com The server-side install of this VB script-based program takes 60 seconds. The VB creates the asp pages needed to display database info on a web page. I have found it *very* useful.
If you are looking for the easiest way to web-enable a database, check it out. (A 'custom' version of a database-driven website requires more work.) In its simplest form, you can put an Access/SQL database on-line using asp in less than an hour! (Web server must support asp.) It is a very good tool... and it is free.

The "Simple Slash MOD" will let you put the top x threads started on another page. You can specify if this is from all public forums or just from a specific forum. The instructions are fairly simple and straight-forward. I may have added the bit to filter out the private forums myself though (can't seem to remember). Also, if you are using MySQL it requires some minor editing... just post here and we can help you. 
Incidentally you can see it in action at either of these sites:
http://warsongrecords.waywardsondevelopers.com/

Are you using MS SQL Server or MySQL? I've uploaded a txt version of my inc_simple_slash.asp here - bear in mind that I've made a few other changes so you won't be able to just drop it in... but I did comment the pertinent points.
Also, when I clicked on the http://www.vex-clan.co.uk/index.asp link I got an error... looks like inc_func_common.asp isn't where inc_simple_slash.asp is looking for it.
As to finding the forum's ID, if you hold your mouse over the link to the forum you'll see the ID in the query string.<
