 in the Apache Virtual host use:

 Redirect / http://www.yourdomain.ext/program.py/function?args=values

 Where :
* www.yourdomain.ext is the web host
* program.py is the program which you want start 
* function is a python function which you want start , and it is in program.py
* args is a parameter to your function.

Note: never trust values.

P.S. can be the objects instantiated by url?
