Yes, but this doesn't catch the case where the web server is working, the database is working, but the mod_perl has got itself into a state where the database handle is invalid and spewing errors, but DBI still thinks that it's connected.

You could probably write a simple bash script using lynx, wget or curl that would login as a user (might want to create one just for this purpose with very limited rights) and pull up some a small ticket. If you link directly to the ticket then the query would only be pulling out that tickets data rather than pulling "RT at a Glance" or a search would use more juice than necessary.
