So, I'm now serving simonwillison.net using a stripped down mod_python/Apache server (mod_python is pretty much the only module loaded) that's sat behind nginx, which is configured to serve up my static files and proxy the dynamic requests through to Apache. I'm using Apache as a python application server basically because I can rely on it staying up. It's been working great so far.
FYI, this is pretty similar to the most stable architecture we've so far found at World Online. We use perlbal in front of Apache for Django, and a dedicated lighttpd server/instance for serving static media.
The added bonus of a load balancer is that we can move sites between different physical machines and/or pool them between multiple machines with almost no fuss. It's pretty nice.
Shameless plug: I'm going to be covering Django deployment in my "Advanced Django" tutorial at PyCon...
