I can recommend either using the Generic Feature Database, which we are
refining which currently does allow storing of blast results, or writing
a hacky method that stores into ensembl without the need for a contig.

I was in the process of writing a pipeline that takes in a fasta file of
input sequences running a set of blasts and writing to either a GFD or
ensembl database. If you have your own simple schema that you want, you
can of course write your own adaptor module and plug that right in.
Currently I'm running  into some problems with Bio::DB::Fasta, which I
hope to figure out in a day or 2.
