a real time progress bar would be hard to implement. i suggest just making a .gif picture which immitates a progess bar moving along and starting again and use javascript to show the image after the submit button has been clicked.
its a long shot but its the only thing i can think of.

i think you could do this with output buffering. it would be the same thing as running a couple huge queries then telling the user after each one has been completed. i would say have a function that would return a image, possibly create one with php or just use like img width="" or somthing. just at certain sections in the script, or if its looping after every loop, refresh the image with new specs. definatly possible
