Could use a union-find algorithm to group the points by minimum distance from each other, and generate a polygon to represent each group with a convex hull algorithm, then draw that polygon.
You can find various implementations of both of those algorithms through Google. It will be expensive if you have a large set of data or if the data updates frequently, however. You'll want to pre-compute as much of your data as possible beforehand and have the LUA do as little as possible.

Even drawing the polygon is jank and expensive, though, since there aren't any direct polygon drawing functions in WoW that I'm aware of.

Don't Vanilla/TBC addons show blobs? maybe you couldn't you retrowork that, and make it an addon the players download.

have any examples on how this can be done?
