too clunky for main lines services....not sure how you figure that. We have thousands of customers that are using IWS today in production for a wide range of options. simple, to complex, to very high hit ratio. While I love the other options that are out there, and they certainly server a great purpose, the other key factor to consider is support. If your businesses is ok with support for pan open source based perspective, these other options are fine, if you need enterprise solutinos, with enterprise support, IWS is that.

Check out this Github project from Niels Liisberg. It's a self-hosted HTTP server for quick and easy RPG based services and even sites. I plan to be doing some work with it this year.
You can also use NGINX or Apache as a front end if you need an SSL layer in front of it.

Otherwise you can consider:
CGI or Node as you mentioned or even PHP or Java. Many options.
Personally I would not choose IWS Server. Too klunky for mainstream services.
My two cents ?
