Have spent a couple of hours looking for a module that allows views to save results as a node. Looking for a way to archive views results in a node/cck data. This would allow a cron job to be setup to run the view which will in turn save the output to a predefined node type. These nodes can then be queried by views to display a dynamic output of historical data. Using the views framework this would allow all sorts or data to be stored/archived and then later analysed for trends, changes, etc. Any suggestions on any projects that are heading in this direction?

I've not heard of anyone doing this. It doesn't really sound all that easy.

not sure how practical this would be, but how about exporting a view as a csv or similar and then doing a node import with that data?
