Those locates really made it look too complex. I'd rather use ExtractValue to get the MARC field values, perhaps something along these lines:

select ExtractValue(metadata, '//datafield[@tag="310"]/subfield[@code="a"]') as frequency from biblio_metadata where ExtractValue(metadata, 'count(//datafield[@tag="310"]/subfield[@code="a"])') > 0;
