Most people do this with a "calendar" table, worst case is you could use
generate_series to do it (but it's ugly, and it may not scale well --
haven't tested it) and left join it to your data table.

select cal.date, coalesce(foo.x, 0) AS x
from (select (date_trunc('day', current_timestamp) + (s.s * interval '1
day'))::date AS date
from generate_series(1,365) AS s) AS cal
left join foo ON cal.date = foo.create_date;

date | x
------------+----
2007-01-23 | 1
2007-01-24 | 0
2007-01-25 | 2
2007-01-26 | 3

Why not, for the date part, the simpler alternative:

SELECT CURRENT_DATE + s.s AS DATE FROM generate_series(1, 365) AS s;

?

Be seeing you,

That's one of the problems with having a couple dozen date/time functions
;).
