Hello Joshua, thanks for your post.

That would be a valid solution if the real names where A and B, but unfortunately they're longer than a single character ("crewforum" and "stats" to be exact) and this wouldn't work on the virtual locations as well.

Well, I'm not sure why this doesn't work, but you shouldn't even need
a regex for that.  You should be able to do
<Directory /home/websites/[AB]/>
using shell-style wildcard character classes.  See:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/sections.html#file-and-web
which is for a more modern version of the server but should still apply to 1.3.
