cgi-bin Realm Management

Hi folks.

I would like to protect a CGI from peering eyes and am not sure how to do it.  Any advice appreciated.

I have a vhost box with some web stats I want to publish to authenticated users only.  The URL for this is structured like this:

http://example.com/cgi-bin/stats.pl?config=alpha
http://example.com/cgi-bin/stats.pl?config=bravo
http://example.com/cgi-bin/stats.pl?config=charlie

I have a handful of users that I would like to individually authenticate (Digest, not Basic) for these.  Optimally, an individual .htpasswd file for each url.

I'm on OSX which does not have htpasswd2.  I am unclear where the .htpasswd file would go, seeing that they are essentially all the same url.  Changing my domains doesn't do anything as they are all recognized as being the same server using the CGI-Executables (cgi-bin) directory.  So, confusion sets in.  

Thank you.  

Cheers
