Use the map type dbd or fastdbd to perform a SQL query, the later one
will cache the results but you've to restart httpd in order to perform
a db look-up against the latest db.

You can extend solution 2 by using sub.superman.example.com. Another
way to do that on-the-fly without db look-ups is changing the path to
users/sub1/ .
