I've yet to do it, but running a WebDriver server sounds pretty cool:
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/RemoteWebDriverServer
I'm pretty sure WebDriver is just the name for what Selenium has become. The
php bindings have activity from this fall:
http://code.google.com/p/php-webdriver-bindings/source/list
I wouldn't really say that using Selenium or WebDriver would be considered a
"unit test" as much as it is functional and/or integration testing.
PHPUnit is still pretty good for testing and integrates well with continuous
integration servers (I have it running with Atlassian Bamboo).
I've been using the Lithium framework which also has a nice built-in test
suite: http://lithify.me/docs/manual/quality-code/testing.wiki
