Product/Plugin that accesses a separate database from vB

I'm looking to setup a player count product/plugin for my forum for one of our games, so that when they log into our forum, they can easily see how many people are online.

I have two databases on my web server, "forum" and "game"
vB uses "forum" but I would like to try and set up something on my forum homepage that access the "game" db and selects one row of data to echo the results.

Is this possible? What would be the best way to write the PHP code with or without vB's built in functions?

Thank you
