I would love to use R for my latest project, but as far as I know you can't create a compiled executable for use in a runtime, live web environment. Anybody know of a solution to this issue?

Rserve is an tcp/ip interface to R so you can send R code from any other language. I have used the rserve-ruby interface to some success.

I didn't see a ruby interface - where is it? Also, this doesn't deal with the issue of speed - can R scale to handle, say 100 simultaneous connections?
