Take a look at Lua:

http://www.lua.org/about.html

Runs on pretty much everything. And fast:

As far as "web framework" goes, take a look at Nanoki, which provides  
a set of HTTP libraries implemented in pure Lua:

Here is an online demo of a wiki implemented in pure Lua:

Or at Kepler:

http://www.keplerproject.org/


You might find other Lua libraries at LuaForge:

The Lua user wiki maintain a list of libraries as well:

HTH.
