Thanks for the math, that may come in handy for a project I am working on.

Pools don't receive a report of miner hashrate, they get difficulty 1 share submissions and must extrapolate what the miner hashrate may be.
The average number of hashes required to find a difficulty one share is:
2**48 / 65535
so we estimate 4,295,032,833 hashes performed by a miner per share submitted.
Then lets estimate a miner's hashrate for the last 10 minutes (600 seconds):
S Shares/600 seconds * 4,295 MHash/share = S (4295/600) MHash/second = S * 7.158388 Mhash/s,
so if a miner finds 60 shares in this 10 minutes, their estimated hashrate is 429.5 Mhash/s.

HI BTCtalk,
i urgently need to know how to calculate the worker and pool hashrate to display this data on my website.
The pool uses a PSQL database. Pool software is eloipool.
