Logfile_daemon may achieve this issue if access log is a fifo.

BTW, I haven't tested ;-)

Yes, its quite possible to log to a FIFO. There -are- operating system 
weirdnesses
(at least FreeBSD has some still :) for doing poll on a FIFO. I forget the 
details.

In any case, a FIFO or unix domain socket is completely doable. I may have to do
something with this myself soon to keep some stats on the fly; post-processing 
logs
just isn't scaling. :)
