I assume, that all users defined by the htaccess files are together in
some groups file, and you define for example "require group alpha" or so
for a certain area.
If so, just add a htdig user to your passwd file and add that user to
all existing groups.
In apache for example:
/www/bin/dbmmanage passwd.conf adduser htdig some_password
/www/bin/dbmmanage group.conf add htdig alpha,bravo,charlie,...

If you require 'valid-user' and you don't work with a group file, you
just need to add a htdig user and let htdig run with that...
