1) Change your apache's httpd.conf to run as nobody/nogroup.
2) Use vipw or adduser commands to recreate the www user.
3) Restore /etc's config files from backups.

Don't do that. :-)
If your machine has been running for a while there should be backups
in /var/backup, so you can do:
# grep '^www:'

It seems like there are two possibilities of what you mean.
One is just that you deleted the id www out of your passwd file.
The other is that you really deleted user www
