Nice. For anybody providing their own map, this would be a good proxy script 
instead of the current suggested CGI version. Could you update the proxy page in 
the wiki adding your script there? Could you also add a small description how to 
install the memcache PECL extension, I guess not everyone is familiar with that.

Memcache won't be useable for all the mappers getting their data. IMO we need to 
go for a solution which truely can be used as an alternate XAPI server.
