Here's what you probably want:
select datname,pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size(pg_database.oid)) from
pg_database order by pg_database_size(pg_database.oid) desc;
The OID in these are sort of hidden column, there's a list of them all
at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/ddl-system-columns.html
Most tables will not have an OID nowadays, but many of the system
catalog ones still do. ctid is another handy one to know about--useful
for removing duplicate records and some other fancy tricks.
