I recall hearing about -- or was I just dreaming? -- a way to compile
R as an apache module so it could stay in memory while the webserver
was running.  The alternative is to simply use cgi in perl or python
or whatever to gather user input, execute R in batch mode, grab the
output file and parse it into html.  Lots of boiler-plate involved and
I would be surprised if nobody has attempted this yet.
