The optical variability database of the two images (A and B) of the gravitationally lensed quasar Q0957+561 is based on frames taken with the Liverpool Robotic Telescope in the 2005-2010 period, as part of the Liverpool Quasar Lens Monitoring (LQLM) project (Goicoechea et al. 2010AdAst2010E..29G). A crowded-field photometry pipeline produced instrumental fluxes of both quasar images, and only frames with signal-to-noise ratio above 80 over Q0957+561A were passed through a transformation pipeline. This pipeline transformed instrumental magnitudes into SDSS magnitudes (the calibration-correction scheme is described in Appendix A of Shalyapin et al. (2008A&A...492..401S) and the main text of the paper). We also turned SDSS magnitudes into physical fluxes using suitable conversion equations (SDSS Photometric Flux Calibration 2007, http://www.sdss.org/dr7/algorithms/fluxcal.html). Table 1 contains g-band fluxes for 357 different nights, while Table 2 includes r-band fluxes for 371 observation nights.
