Apache's rewrite stuff together with a regular expression and a wildcard DNS
entry (*.domain.com IN A www.domain.com or similar) should be able to fix
that. Sorry I can't give you an example (as I don't have one handy), but it
should be a matter of just grabbing the first portion of the domain and
sending it to the right controller, and so on.

When you manage to get it done, it would be interesting to see how you did
it.
