If you're not wedded to Apache, then you might consider PyWX,

	http://pywx.idyll.org/

which attaches to AOLserver (free, open-source, scalable).  AOLserver has
a number of advantages over Apache at the moment, including a much cleaner
internal design & a very nice embedded Python interpreter (PyWX ;).

If you're stuck with Apache for technical or ideological reasons, you should
also take a look at mod_snake.  (I assume you meant mod_python and pyapache
above, right?)  mod_snake sounds like it is very clean, and I've heard several
different complaints about the state of mod_python and pyapache, additionally.
