The query is just as intensive wherever you do it from, as far as I can see. You can do it, but it's quite impractical unless you make it be a weekly build of some static resource (kind of like the category selector). Even then I wouldn't be surprised if it timed out if you have many cats/links involved, so perhaps only practical on a dedicated where it can be run as a cron.

Have a look at what you wrote:
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 20 -->
<!-- END TOPLIST 411 -->

there does not seem to be an easy way to populate a list of categories along with the links within it, using a simple <ul><li></li></ul> approach.
Nested toplists aren't impossible, but it would be murder on the server and your page would take 40 seconds to load.
If you're doing a one-page links page, use link types instead of categories and do toplists of each link type.
indentations were lost in above example
Always use the code tags when posting code.
