Is this link generated by your python CGI script?  If so you'll have to
work out some way for your python script to interact with Apache and ask
it where the document root is.

If this link is in static html, then you simply need to fix your html to
make the link valid.  Or maybe you need to modify your apache
installation so that it knows where "/data" is using an alias directive
in your apache config.
