I use R in such a way. R is called by dynamic pages written in PHP,
performs a calculation and writes results in a XML file. Results are
then read by other pages. Performances still could be better but I
haven't tried every solution yet (RSOAP seems very interesting). MySQL
database access is made thanks to RMySQL.
Anyway, R is not incompatible with such projects.
