While sudo/webmin are good options, it's always a nice (and
personal touch) to have a shell script to do that for you. It
really shouldn't be that difficult, just create a webform hooked
up into a database which remotely adds users every 5 minutes or
so, and you should be set. While I have not done this personally,
I can further discuss what I believe to be a workable idea in
private if anyone is interested. --Jonathan
