Brainstorming: Sounds to me like something a mailing list software is doing. I can imagine subscribing everybody to a dedicated (pseudo) mailing list. Periodic pings are sent to the list and we let the mailing list software track bounces. BTW, how about concentrating the handling of all subscriptions to a separate mailing list (in order not to overload debian-www). The alioth webwml group could be used to host all these lists and mailman should be able to handle my idea above.
