The concept of "static" pages where you can submit data to the server seems a bit weird (means you can submit info to the server, but then you never see the result of that info... unless you access the info via Ajax requests I guess).
Anyways, concerning the centralized Ajax requests, its definitely feasible. You just need to have a central service running on web2py to receive/ reply to the requests and then craft the Ajax requests on the static pages to make the requests to this service. A good chunk of the work would be client-side logic rather than server- side logic. Authentication might be a challenge however...
