You could use an argument.

www.myapp.com/userprofile can be mapped to a controller/method like
www.myapp.com/app/profiles/show/userprofile

where app = application, profiles = controller, show = function,
userprofile is an argument accessed by request.args(0) inside "show".
You can use it to query database according to that user.

In order to hide "app/profiles/show" from url follow the usual
routes.py mapping  (its given on some other post here) assuming you
have only one app on the server.
