Only one program can bind and listen on one port at the same time. If you want to have "special" requests, you need to either configure Apache so it calls your script (via mod_perl or CGI, for exmaple), or you have to write your program so that it sits in front of Apache and forwards all "normal" requests to your program (via HTTP::Proxy for example).

If all you want to do is to listen to the incoming requests, I wrote Sniffer::HTTP which listens to all network traffic and extracts the HTTP requests. So maybe you can tell us more about what you want to do.
