Howdy,
Virtualmin does offer backups, but they don't occur automatically, you'd need to manually configure them (in Backup and Restore -> Scheduled Backups).
The bad news, then, is that there's not likely anything you can do to retrieve your database. Sorry!
Moving forward -- I might suggest always verifying that any server containing data you don't wish to lose has backups of said data :-)
With Virtualmin, you can use the Scheduled Backups to make daily backups. You could setup something to run once a week that's a full backup, and the remaining 6 days could be an incremental backup (which takes up much less space).
