When I read this post briefly I thought this might be what you are looking for: http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS This will compile on the fly. Or, you could write a swf in php with something like ming? At first thought, I would probably store my data in a database, use remoting to pull the vars (if applicable) and generate the new swf with a php class (through remoting) or something like that.
