View Agenda for last 7 days

[Jonathan Arkell <jonathana@criticalmass.com>]

Hi Org peeps

I'd like to have a custom agenda block to show the previous 7 days, or even the last week for GTD style weekly reviews, but I can't figure out how to make it go.  So if I view the agenda on the 21st of july, I should see July 14th through 20th.  If it is easier, seeing the 3rd week in July would also be fine (13th-19th)

So far this is what I have for my org-agenda-custom-commands:

            ("W" "Weekly Review"
                 ((agenda ""
                          ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Last 7 Days (broken)")
                                   (org-agenda-ndays 7)
                                   (org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all t)))
                  (agenda ""
                                  ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Next 30 Days")
                                   (org-agenda-ndays 30)
                                   (org-agenda-include-diary t)
                                   (org-agenda-files nil)
                                   (org-agenda-show-all-dates t)
                                   (org-agenda-use-time-grid nil)))
                  (stuck "")
                  ,(jonnay-org-tags-todo "PROJECTs that are waiting to be re-understood" (list "_reproject") "PROJECT")
                  (todo "PROJECT")
                  (todo "TODO")
                  (todo "WAITING"))
                 nil
                 ("weekly.html" "weekly.ps" ))

I tried setting org-agenda-ndays to -7, but that didn't really work.  Is there some way to tell org-agenda to start at a different date?
