I suspect that webservers-in-mud-servers are quite common..
AR (ooh, I can see potential for confusion here) has a built-in web server
with a few interesting bits & pieces - see <A HREF="http://abandoned.org:4448/">http://abandoned.org:4448/</A>
(also <A HREF="http://abandoned.org:4448/cl">http://abandoned.org:4448/cl</A> for the changelog - that main page
hasn't been updated in ages)
Quick summary of what's there:
- mo n mo stats (connected users, average players/hour, general mud stats,
...)
- help system access
- message board read access (though it's broken atm)
- basic authentication to enable access to admin commands: reboot,
shutdown, various world-building-related search systems, etc
- access to the changelog
There's also a recent addition that allows player to edit strings via a
browser & submit to the mud directly - considerably nicer than using a
line-based editor (I'm not familiar with the details of this, haven't
actively worked on the code for some time). There was support for a Java
applet that did basically the same thing via a separate protocol (and
hence had to be served from the mud server itself), but I had a lot of
problems writing an editor applet that would actually work on a range of
browsers. Java UI tweaking is not one of my strengths.

Considered NNTP?
