Depending on how much of Apache's featureset you're using, it may be
easiest to set it aside altogether and just run a Python HTTP server.
Then you can maintain as much state as you like.

But if you're currently hosting multiple sites and distinguishing
between them using Host: headers (using NameVirtualHost), then you'd
have to change them all, which probably wouldn't be worthwhile.
