You'll want to follow the instructions here
http://spyce.sourceforge.net/docs/doc-conf_next.html and get that
working before you start messing with Apache.  With Spyce, you edit .spy
files that correspond to the pages a user requests...  the only .py file
you'll ever run from the command line is the Spyce server.

Honestly though, although in a lot of ways Spyce is a simpler system
than django, django is much better documented so you might want to give
that a try too.  See http://www.djangobook.com/

It defaults to binding to all IPs, i.e., public.  If this worries you
add this to your project's config.py

ipaddr = '127.0.0.1'
