I'm a bit confused - the Lua script is in the PowerDNS Recursor, which does
not have a database.

Right now, this is not possible, but the Lua scripts will be enhanced very
shortly with a number of new hooks. One of these will allow you to override
any answer, and even change the question.

If you could elaborate a bit more, we could make sure that the new hooks
do what you need.
