If you want a multiplexer to serve different connections from a single

Ack. The web server is a problem though, because you typically don't
have control of it. I.e. you cannot randomly plug-in your code into it.

You have control over a web server you install. Yes, that would eat one IP address, but there are a lot more IP addresses than port numbers (i.e., using a port to avoid using a separate IP address consumes the wrong resource).

However, see my other message - it's hard to recommend an approach when we don't understand the problem you're trying to solve.
