Yes, each user's twitter password is encrypted and stored in the SQL
database. It's not on dreamhost, though :-) the server is physically
controlled, in a high-end co-location facility in Portland.

When an API call comes in with a disposable password, the twitter
password is fetched from the database and used to make the call to the
twitter.com API

Also, the first time a disposable password is used, it is labeled with
the incoming hostname and will only be good for that host. API events
for that password are visible in the control panel.
