That sort of thing is probably best handled outside Struts in my opinion. A servlet filter which catches requests with that pattern /myapp/8 and then does a clean forward to blah?partner=8 - I do a similar thing in my app, but you then need to think about relative URLs for everything which then sits under that.
Personally unless you have a specific need for clean URLs such as for search engine optimisation then its not really worth the effort.
